Jefferson-Morgan is a small, rural school district. The size of the district makes it possible for almost everyone to know each other. The district is structured as Pre-K to 6 in the Elementary School, grades 7 and 8 in the middle school, and grades 9 to 12 in the high school. During the implementation of the strategic plan of 1999-2005, the district expanded its use of technology. Teamwork is now evident across professional staff and project-based plans are being implemented by teacher teams across the K-12 spectrum.

Early Childhood "Getting Ready" Workshop
On Tuesday, April 13, 2010, Mrs. Dolan, Mrs. Headley, and Mrs. Gustovich provided a fantastic parent workshop called "Getting Ready" for parents of Pre-K and Kindergarten students who will be making the transition from Pre-K to Kindergarten or from Kindergarten to First grade. Parents were able to have open discussion with the teachers regarding transition. Also, the parents received informative literature about transition along with children's books and home activities.
