BOO! to drugs and wear your orange and black.



Today students mismatched and looked like mixed up STARS! Tomorrow we will be "totally awesome, dude" and dress from another decade. Pull out that flannel, poodle skirt, tie-dye or leg warmers to keep celebrating Red Ribbon Week!


Not sure how many days your child has missed or whether they're on track with attendance? Call the school at 304-725-9587 or email Addison Tucker (addison.tucker@k12.wv.us). We're happy to answer questions and work with you on anything making it difficult for your child to attend. We're here to help!
Good afternoon, NJES Families!
We are excited to announce that Strawbridge Studios will be our new school photography company. Fall Picture Day is scheduled for November 5, 2026. Flyers with information about portrait packages and ordering will be sent home this week.
Please disregard any emails from Lifetouch, as we will no longer be using Lifetouch for Fall Pictures, Spring Pictures, or Yearbooks.
Thank you for your attention, and we look forward to a great Picture Day! 😊
Next week help us celebrate Red Ribbon Week!
Monday: Rally in RED and Stand Up to Drugs. Wear Red!
Tuesday: Don’t Let Drugs Mix You Up. Wear Mismatched Clothes!
Wednesday: Be TOTALLY AWESOME DUDE and Don’t Do Drugs. Wear Clothes from a past decade.
Thursday: Follow Your Dreams and Be Drug Free. Wear your pajamas to school!

🚗 Parking: Use the Parent Pick-Up/Drop-Off lot only. The staff/bus lot is reserved for Trunk or Treat. (see photo)
📝 Entry: Please head straight to the sign-in table first.
🛑 Timing: The event is scheduled from 5-7pm, but please wait for our welcome team to open entry before walking in. This ensures all trunks and indoor activities are 100% ready for you!

Our meeting will begin at 4:00 PM in our NJES Library. We hope to see you there!
Attendance reminder: An excused absence helps us understand why your child missed school, but it is still a missed school day. It does not erase the absence or the learning time missed. Chronic absenteeism means missing 10% or more of school days, including BOTH excused and unexcused absences.
Every school day matters! Please try to avoid your child missing any days unless absolutely necessary.
We are currently having maintenance work completed in our Parent Drop-Off/Pick-Up parking area.
Over the next few days, some parking spaces will be roped off while our repair crew works to improve the area. At times, traffic flow may be reduced to one lane for both entering and exiting the lot.
Thank you for your patience, caution, and cooperation as we complete these important repairs. We appreciate your help in keeping everyone safe!
Be on the lookout for a flyer announcing the start of the sale. Spirit Wear will be available through www.zeroinsports.com/njes/.
We can’t wait to see our NJES community showing their school spirit!
