Jaguar Den is a space at Jefferson that houses basic supplies and food items for Jefferson students that are homeless, highly mobile, or in a difficult financial situation. This collaborative effort by parents, school personnel, and OASIS for Youth provides food, personal care items, school supplies, and other necessities for students. Students can access the Jaguar Den by talking to their counselor, school social worker, administrator, or hallway supervisor. If you would like to donate to help Jefferson students in need, we are accepting cash or check donations made out to ISD 271, as well as donations of healthy snacks, hygiene items, and school supplies.  All donations can be dropped off in the Jefferson Counseling office.
