Johnston 2019 Back to School Events

The first day of school in the Johnston Community School District is Friday, August 23. Leading up to that first day are different orientation and back-to-school events for families to attend in preparation for the start of the new school year. From learning where classrooms are to meeting your teachers, we encourage parents and students to check out the events in their school. Questions should be directed to a child’s respective school.
