Hello and welcome to Jeff Davis Elementary School. First and foremost, student and staff safety is our top priority. Our team works diligently to provide safe learning environments for all students. Jeff Davis Elementary has a student enrollment of approximately 700 students, 75 staff members, and serves students in third through fifth grade. The tardy bell rings at 7:50 a.m. each morning and student dismissal is at 2:50 p.m. Quality learning opportunities and academic growth are important parts of the Jeff Davis Elementary School student experience. However, our team also understands the immense value of growing and supporting the whole student. JDES provides additional services to address behavior challenges, develop social emotional abilities, mitigate the impact of trauma, and promote equity. Students have the opportunity to participate in Art, STEAM, Music, Health, PE, and Band classes during connection time. Response to intervention classes in both reading and math, as well as, English as a Second Language course are also provided to students who need additional support. A gifted resource class is offered to provide acceleration to learners. Access to wrap around services such as mental health counseling for students and families, a student clothes closet, a food pantry, and spiritual guidance, can be arranged through the school counselor and school social worker. All students at JDES receive a nutritious breakfast and lunch daily. Free of charge. Transportation to and from school is also provided to all Jeff Davis County students. Our team is committed to the well-being and academic success of all students. I'm confident that together we will conquer the challenges and navigate this educational journey to success. Thank you for choosing our team to serve you and your family. We look forward to a great year!
