Jenkintown Elementary School Every Student Succeeds ACT (ESSA) Future Ready Index Report
Jenkintown Elementary School is located just outside Philadelphia in The Borough of Jenkintown. JES serves over 300 students in grades K-6. In addition to standard academics, we offer our students art, music, physical education, FLES, and a wide variety of extra-curricular activities.
The present elementary school was erected in 1936. Additions and alterations were made to both buildings as the school grew in size and scope of program. The most recent addition to the elementary building was in 1969-70. A new wing was erected to house two kindergarten rooms, a cafeteria and kitchen, a faculty room, and a music room. Since then, the music room has been converted into administration offices.
At JES, we teach our students CARES: Cooperation, Acceptance of others, Respect, Eagerness to learn, Staying safe.
