News & Announcements

We are so excited to announce the start of a two-week theater residency program for our 6th-grade students with Skyline Children's Theater! From April 20th to May 6th, this one-hour daily program during the school day will explore storytelling, character development, and theatrical performance through the beloved story of Finding Nemo Jr.

The book fair is coming! Here’s what you need to know to shop and to volunteer!

The fine arts team is pleased to present our Annual Visual Arts Show and Earth Day Celebration on Wednesday, April 22nd, from 4:30 to 6 pm. This event will provide families with the opportunity to see artwork from ALL PreK-8th students across the building while enjoying student-led Earth Day activities outside on the playlot.

Literati Book Fair is right around the corner, and I am eager to be a part of it this school year. The fair will begin on Monday, April 20th with opportunities for families, students and teachers to shop throughout that week.

It's really that time of year! We will only accept pre-orders, so don't miss out. Order this school year's book featuring PreK-8th now through Tuesday, April 14th.

Our own 2nd grader, Mae McCabe, has an artwork on display at the Student Art Exhibition: Extra/Ordinary. The show is put on by the Art Institute of Chicago's Teen Council, CPS Art Student Voice Committee, and Chicago Public Schools. It highlights 3-D artwork by CPS students in grades Pre-K–12 from any CPS school. Check out the show at Ryan Learning Center at the Art Institute of Chicago until June 5th!

The Aspen Parent Portal allows you to manage student information in one place. This one-pager helps with account set-up to be able to log in to get access to grades, assignments, attendance information, and more!

The window for preschool applications for the 2026-27 school year will open on April 7th. We invite prospective families to meet our PreK teachers and tour classrooms via an open house on Wednesday, April 15th, from 3:30-4:30 pm. We would love to have your child join our Jahn family!

On Sunday, April 19th, join Jahn families and friends for an afternoon of fun at a Chicago Wolves hockey game! Purchase tickets through Friends of Jahn by 4/13, and everyone will be seated together in the same section. Our school name will also be on the LED boards during the game, and everyone will receive a free hat!

Thank you for your support while our 3rd-8th graders complete the Illinois Assessment of Readiness test. Arriving on time is always important, but during testing it is essential.
