JA was awarded the John Irwin Award in the fall of 2018. Brendon Feddema was hired as the new principal of JA Elementary for the 22-23 school year. With an additional assistant principal added, the leadership team focused on maintaining effective systems and structures developed in previous years to support academic growth and achievement. During the 2024-25 school year, a committee of teachers helped to determine the focus for the UIP. The committee analysed trend data from both MAP, DiBels, and CMAS to inform their goals. This committee will guide the goals setting and the UIP development for the current school year. The Administrative Leadership team put a focus on PLC work throughout the school. Grade level teams work is driven by the UIP and serves to inform the direction for future UIP's as well as the Charter School Boards' 3 year strategic plan.
