Until further notice the West Harrison Fitness Center is closed.

Due to the school shutdown by the Govenor's office over the covid-19 spread all activities, practices, concerts, contests, and meets are cancelled by the IHSAA, IGHSAU, and IHSSA over those 4 weeks. Beyond that time period, a decision will be made at a later date. More information can be found on the IHSAA or IGHSAU websites (iahsaa.org / ighsau.org).

Governor Reynolds announced at 8:15 this evening that all Iowa schools should close for four weeks effective immediately. We apologize for the short notice, but want to be sure we keep our students, staff and community safe by following our Governor's recommendation. More information to come as this is a developing situation.

In light of high volume illness in the school(s) we are asking that parents please review and update your contact information. Please ensure that these contacts are someone who is available and willing to pick up sick children in an effort to help decrease the volume of calls needing to be made to reach someone. Changes or updates can be made directly on JMC or you may contact Annette Kuhlman in the elementary or Brenda Pape in the middle school/high school. Thank you for your cooperation and help with this.

We have had a crazy and wacky week celebrating Dr. Seuss’s birthday and our love of reading!
