Contact UsRhonda Russell, Principal From the Principal..... Dear Students and Parents: Thank you for a year to remember at JJHS! Because of your outstanding efforts, our school has achieved the best attendance percentage of secondary schools in the parish and the best overall School Performance Score of 4. This past year we had 45 students inducted into Beta Club with an overall GPA of 3.5 or higher, and over 1/3 of the student population maintained A/B honor roll for the year. I also want to praise our faculty and staff for their dedicated efforts this school year. Our teachers have gone above and beyond, not only in the classroom, but with many school activities as well. We have seen growth in student participation and parent involvement because of the efforts by our faculty. Good luck to our 8th graders at JHS and welcome to our future 6th graders! To all of our students, I hope you have a fun and safe summer! Sincerely, Rhonda Russell, Principal MottoGIANT PRIDE P - Preparedness Faculty & Staff
