Dear Jenkintown School Community,

As we prepare to kick off the 2024-2025 school year, I would like to extend a warm welcome back to all of our students, families, faculty, and staff. I hope you have enjoyed a restful summer and are ready for a wonderful year ahead.

This year is particularly special as we celebrate the 150th Anniversary of the School District of Jenkintown! In honor of this milestone, we have many exciting events planned throughout the year to commemorate our rich history, community spirit, and commitment to education.

Please find attached the following important documents:

  1. Back to School Newsletter: This newsletter contains key information about the start of the school year and our District Goals for 2024-2025.
  2. Schedule of Events for the 150th Anniversary: A full list of celebrations and activities honoring the district’s incredible 150-year history.
  3. Homecoming & Alumni Hall of Fame Induction Schedule: Join us as we celebrate our Drakes pride and recognize distinguished alumni for their contributions to Jenkintown and beyond.

We encourage everyone to participate in these special celebrations and to mark your calendars for the events that will bring us together as a community.

If you have any questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to contact the school office. We look forward to a fantastic year of learning, growth, and celebration!

Warm regards,
Dr. Jill Takacs
