Head coach is Mr. Conklin. Games available are Madden 26, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Rocket League, Marvel Rivals. Part of step-up on Thursdays. Deadline for league entry is September 19th.
We are off to a great start to the school year, and it has been wonderful to see our students back and engaged in learning. As we begin our second week, please know that we will continue to address any behaviors that distract from learning or impact the safety of our school community.
Our goal is to partner with you in supporting your student’s success. If you have concerns about grades or classroom expectations, please reach out directly to your child’s teacher. For other concerns, you may contact your child’s counselor or administrator. A chart with names and assignments is included below for your reference.
Looking ahead, we invite you to join us for Back-to-School Night on Thursday, September 22, from 4:00–6:00 p.m. This is a great opportunity to meet your child’s teachers and learn more about their school experience.
Safety is a top priority. It is our plan that, when possible, we will have our weapons detection system set up to scan those entering our building. Keep this in mind if you are visiting or if your student comes in when the system is set up.
Thank you for your continued support. Together, we can make this a successful year for every student.

We’ve had a great start to the school year at JMB! Just a few reminders: learning is required every day. Behaviors that distract from learning or safety—such as hanging out in bathrooms or hallways, vaping, dress code violations, misuse of cell phones, disruptions, or disrespect—will be addressed. Thank you for supporting a safe and focused learning environment for all Clippers!
Whether you’re looking to sing your heart out or invest in your future, we’ve got something for you! Join the Stock Market Club to learn about money, risk-taking, and trading stocks, or sign up for Choir. Auditions for Concert Choir are still open, and Intermediate Choir requires no audition.
Want to support the JMB Marching Band & Color Guard? Our second "Bennett Bites" fundraiser of the year is tonight at Playa Bowls on S. Salisbury from 3-9PM! No flyer needed to make sure a portion of your sale goes towards the Bennett Band & Guard. Thank you for helping make this season a great one.
Freshmen Field Day fun at James M. Bennett High! Our newest Clippers are all in and ready for a great year ahead! 🎉
