I love teaching at Jones Middle School! We are a small, rural district in a close knit community with a diverse population of students. We love our 6th, 7th, and 8th graders at JMS and work hard to provide engaging learning experiences for students to succeed. It's a great place to live and work. It's rural, but just minutes from Shawnee, Choctaw, and Oklahoma City.

Our school is on the rise. Students are progressively taking on more responsibility without being forced to every year. The academic focused clubs are growing along side the athletics in numbers. Maturity has improved in all three grades.

JMS is a school that not only cares about your child's education, they care about your child as a person. The administration, counselor, and teachers take a personal interest in getting to know each student in order to guide them in the most effective way. A variety of classes and clubs/organizations allow students the opportunity to explore new interests. The positive spirit by administration and faculty is contagious, and the students know they are important and JMS is always looking for ways to improve their middle school experience and education.

I am very impressed with what the school has offered my child with curriculum. He has thrived with the AP courses and the act prep has helped him advance. He has really enjoyed being apart of the Academic team and the school athletics.

I have 3 children, one has graduated and two are in the Jones Middle School now. I am so proud and happy with the way JMS has provided a great learning and fun environment for my kids. There is no explaining in words when your boys come home from school and tell you they had a good day and start explaining what they learned and what they did through out the day. As a parent of teenagers and pre-teens that is a huge accomplishment. Thank you Jones Middle School.

I am very happy with Jones Middle School. I appreciate the interest teachers take in their students, and the hard work they put into engaging their students. The school offers Algebra I for the advanced math students among other advanced subjects. The students like and respect the principal.

Well kept, older building with an isolated location outside of town. Friendly and fun staff loved by both parents and students. Offers a fun and encouraging learning environment. Teachers not only teach, but take a personal interest in their students. The principal, Mr McPhail, also takes a personal interest in the students and is very interactive with them!!
