Dear West Jay Families,
Hello! I hope that so far all WJE families have had a fun, safe, and productive summer!
Today is the first day for online registration for the Jay School Corporation. To sign your child up for school, you will need to go to the Jay Schools website and click "online registration". From there you can follow the prompts and answer all of the questions to register your child for school. Here we go! On to another great year at West Jay Elementary!!!
See you soon!

Field Day shenanigans!! The WJE had a great field day today! Students were able to run, jump, and get a little wet! A special thanks goes out to the Dunkirk Fire Department for making our day extra special!!!
Dear WJE Families,
After careful monitoring of the weather forecast for Friday, May 12th, the decision has been made to postpone WJE Field Day until Tuesday, May 16th (our rain date). We believe that this potential rain would cause unsafe conditions for students to participate in the field day events. The forecast for Tuesday, May 16th is much better as no rain is forecasted for that day.
Because of this change, we ask that any parent volunteers that are unable to help on Tuesday, May 16th to please call the WJE school office to let us know (765) 768-7648.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to ensure that we have a fun and SAFE field day at WJE on Tuesday, May 16th.
Sincerely,
Mr. Jeff Davis

I was very proud to stand with them. "

We have made the decision to hold back our students who walk home until the hard rain passes. This means that students who walk home will be late coming home today. We will hold the students 10-15 minutes.
