Latest News @ JCD

Our eighth grade Communications class worked hard throughout the first marking period. Our magnet focus area of "The World in My Backyard," provides students the opportunity to learn more about members of their community. This group of students wanted to learn about and share about the members of the John C. Daniels' staff. 

Please take the time to enjoy their work! As you read, you too may learn more about the individuals who work with your children each day.

Our "backyard" is filled with so many who truly love what they do and being a part of the JCD family.
