CJHS Beta Club members made and delivered 300 sweet treats and thank you letters to the West Frankfort Police and Fire Departments for their March Service Project! We are grateful for the first responders in our community and all they do to keep our town, and especially our schools, safe and welcoming for our students and their families.
CJHS has added a new feature to our website - a weekly assignment button on the homepage. If you click on the "Weekly Assignments" button, it will take you to a page where you can see all the class activities for each CJHS teacher. We hope this may help in allowing parents to keep track of what their student should be doing in and out of their classes.

A Follow-Up from Frankfort CUSD #168: After talking with and reassuring some students in the bus lines about this afternoon's brief hold/soft lockdown, please reassure them as they get home that they were safe at all times. The person of interest, who was walking on the northeast side of town near Bryan Street and an old school, was quickly apprehended by the WFPD. After further investigation, he was carrying a "look-a-like" weapon and not a real one. We again thank the alert individuals of the public who alerted us immediately so that we can reach out to law enforcement to make that determination. It takes all of us to keep our students and schools safe. Enjoy the rest of your day.
