Safety First!
To help keep our morning drop-off line running smoothly, please remember to drop off your student and then exit the car rider line. Parking in the drop-off lane is not allowed. If your student needs extra time to unload items, we kindly ask that you park in the main parking lot before letting them out. This helps keep the line moving efficiently for everyone.
Thank you for your cooperation and partnership in helping us ensure a safe and smooth arrival and dismissal for all of our students!

Say cheese! Our French students had a blast at their annual French Photo Booth! From dressing up to capturing fun memories, this activity was a great way to build classroom community and celebrate learning together. 💙❤️🤍

🌎🎲 Science + Movement + New Connections! 🧪

Our 7th graders kicked off the year with a fun Carbon Cycle Dice Game! As they rolled the dice, students simulated the journey of a carbon atom as it moved through different sources and sinks within the carbon cycle.

This activity was one of three science-themed icebreakers designed to help students reconnect with content from last year while getting to know their new science classmates. Students were up, moving around the room, interacting with new peers, and learning—all in a fun, low-stress environment!

We love seeing our James Blair Spiders learning, laughing, and making connections while getting back into the swing of science! 🕷️

Wednesday, we welcomed our families to campus for 6th Grade Orientation and Open House, and we were thrilled to have the largest turnout in the history of James Blair Middle School!

It was wonderful to see so many of our newest Spiders and their families exploring the building, meeting teachers, learning about JBMS, and getting ready for an exciting school year.

Thank you to all of our JBMS families for joining us and helping us kick off the school year! 🕷🖤❤
