  • 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.

Site Safe Antenna Safety Inspection

Due to the communities concerns regarding possible cell phone tower emissions, the Jamieson Local School Council would like to provide the Jamieson community with an independent, thrid party, inspection report of the emissions from the cell phone tower completed by Site Safe in the fall of 2010.

A quick summarization of the report finds the Jamieson site is compliant with the FCC rule and regulations. In fact, measurements from surrounding households RF signals (usually due to wireless routers for internet access) is greater than that generated by the cell phone antenna.

A complete copy of the report is available here.
