About Jennings School District
Jennings History
Jennings
School District has a long and distinguished history, extending back
over 125 years to 1871. The School District of Jennings is located in
North St. Louis County and is adjacent to the City of St. Louis. It is composed of three small townships, Jennings, Country Club Hills, and
Flordell Hills, with a total population of approximately 20,000. The
School District consists of over 3,000 K-12 students. We have eight
schools and one alternative program. The district's schools are Fairview
Primary, Fairview Intermediate, Northview Elementary, Woodland
Elementary, Hanrahan Elementary, Rose Mary Johnson Junior High, and Jennings
Senior High. Each school has a principal and an instructional specialist
or coach supporting the implementation of a rigorous academic
curriculum. Jennings also has an alternative program that
supports secondary school students who need an alternative programmatic
setting outside of the traditional secondary environment. The
alternative program is the Jennings Educational Training School (JETS)
whose goal is to inspire academic excellence and civic responsibility. The Jennings School District engages in the learning process with
honesty, creativity, dedication, and respect, and seeks to cultivate an
atmosphere of freedom and trust in a safe and nurturing environment.
Mission
