Jahn Elementary School Home

As we continue our journey through the month of April, I reflect on the fact that our school year continues to slowly come to an end. Before that happens, there will be plenty of events happening on campus aimed at keeping you and your children engaged.

The Literati book fair will be at Jahn April 22-26

The book fair is coming! Here’s what you need to know. We also need volunteers to help students pick out books and run the register!

Principal’s Message

Greetings Jahn Families and Community!

It is with great pleasure that I write to you as a committed member of this great institution of learning. As the principal of Jahn School of Fine Arts, I look forward to working with you throughout the school year. I am extremely excited to be a part of the Husky family and look forward to the continuance of great work on Wolcott Street.

I am honored to lead this work alongside you, and I am confident we will accomplish amazing feats together. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions you might have around things happening at Jahn. Here’s to the start of our powerful partnership.

-Dr. Derrick Kimbrough, Principal

Empowering Creative Thinkers

Our students are the center and soul of our school. At Jahn, we strive to empower them to be lifelong learners and use the arts as communication, creative personal realization, connectors of culture and history, a means to wellbeing, and community engagement.

See what our students are creating!
