John M. Clayton is an immersion school offering students an opportunity to learn in Spanish for half of the school day! We are a Project Lead the Way school and STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) is one of our special rotations that students attend weekly. Each year we host two music concerts, several fun PTO events, and grow food in our school garden each fall and spring. JMC students and staff are unstoppable! We are proud of the incredible culture created here at JMC and the academic progress shown in each grade level! We look forward to this upcoming school year together.
