School Security

All Portage Township Schools have security measures in place for the safeguarding of our children, faculty, and staff.  At the start of the school day, all doors/entrances into the building are locked. Parents/Visitors are to enter at the main entrance to the building. Please be sure to follow the protocol for entrance into Jones School.
 
 
E-Alerts and School Messenger are two other ways to give parents information about school events.
 
 
E-Alerts let parents register at the district level website and also at our school website in order to get emailed alerts to their email addresses about school closings, website changes, and current events (you can choose to be notified when certain webpages changes).
 
 
School Messenger (a telephone automated dialer system) is used by both the school's office to notify parents of upcoming events and late buses and also by individual teachers to remind students/parents of field trips, different events, and class activities.
