Welcome to the A.S. Jenks Home and School Association's NEW WEBSITE!
We're thrilled to be introducing you to our brand-new digital hub, where information, engagement, and support converge in once convenient space. The A.S. Jenks Home and School Association (HSA) is excited to kick off this school year on a high note, building on the energy and collaboration that made the first year fully active post-lockdown as successful as it was.
Who we are:
The Home and School Association (HSA) is a collaborative organization comprising parents and educators that functions as a vital support system for our school community. One distinctive feature of our HSA is that volunteering is not required; we recognize that everyone has different levels of availability, and your participation is entirely voluntary. Our primary focus is to streamline communication between parents, teachers, and the school administration, making it easier for everyone to stay informed and engaged.
In essence, the Home and School Association fosters a collaborative and efficient environment that benefits both parents and educators, contributing to the overall success and cohesion of our school community. Your involvement in the HSA, whether through active participation or staying informed, is highly valued and helps strengthen our collective efforts in providing the best possible educational experience for our students.
What does the board do?
Our dedicated HSA board plays a crucial role in keeping everyone well-informed. They act as liaisons between parents and the school's leadership, including the principal. This proactive approach prevents the principal from being inundated with the same questions from different individuals, ensuring that the administrative team can focus on educational goals and the well-being of our students. Through regular communication and updates, the HSA board ensures that the entire school community is aware of important news, objectives, and progress towards our shared goals.
