Elementary Schools
JELV: Where It All Begins
The Jessamine Early Learning Village serves the youngest members of the JCS Family, welcoming new learners with open arms. We are the “front door” to the district, the first introduction to a vibrant and dedicated school system. Here, at the very beginning of it all, students learn and grow together, socially, emotionally, and academically. The JELV symbol incorporates colors from each school in the district, signaling the unity and potential of each incoming class of students. To signify the deep connections to family and home, you will find a familiar shape in the upper left-hand corner.
