Welcome
to the
JPS Media Center

Say Hello to Spike our Media Center Mascot. He guards our entrance to learning adventures! He was created by JPS students in the ART II classes
JPS Students voted schoolwide for his name. He is a Tyrannosaurus Rex and has helped us learn many interesting facts about dinosaurs.
This school year we have received over 800 new books in our Media Center collection. All students have been eagerly exploring new adventures every day.
Come in for a visit and see our new books!!
The books in the Media Center open doors to worlds of adventures and facts about all kinds of people, places and things!
The Media Specialist's are always there to help us explore these adventures
