  • JEFF -Jamieson Education Family and Friends, our parent support not for profit group, is extremely excited to announce their continuing efforts to beautiful Jamieson school by working towards a complete playground renovation from asphalt to green space. To be successful with this endeavor JEFF is looking for your support and commitment. Please visit the JEFF section of our website (in the community section of our site.) There you can see a drawing of the purposed new playground and learn more about how to participate. Members of JEFF will also be available at Report Card Pick-Up on April 18th to answer any questions.

  • MARK YOUR CALENDARS and SAVE THE DATES—February 11 and 12!

    On behalf of JEFF and Jamieson School, I’d like to invite  parents, teachers, students, community members, and local and state representatives to our Playground Plan and Campus Park Brainstorming Event set for Saturday, February 11th, 2012.  We have formed a relationship with the Urban Habitat Chicago—a non-profit organization that provides landscape planning and facilitation expertise. 

    The session will begin at 9:45 a.m. with refreshments prior to UHC’s presentation outlining the process. Then, we will invite participants to comment on, draw, and otherwise articulate what they would like to see Jamieson’s playground become This session will run from 11:15 a.m. until 1:00 p.m. and ALL are welcome to join in. This is designed to be a collaborative event that will allow all members of the Jamieson community to participate and form a long term relationship to improve the school, beautify the neighborhood, and support family use of our campus. I hope to see many people in attendance.

    If you have any questions, please contact Principal Baughman at 773-534-2395.
