Editing Jamestown, Kansas (section)

==Education==
The community is served by [[Concordia USD 333]] public school district.

In 1911, local residents of Jamestown transferred some property to School District 32 to create the Jamestown Schools.  Kansas public schools underwent reorganization and in 1962, the "old" school district 32 entered a Quit Claim Deed and transferred the property to Unified School District 333.  The Jamestown School provided classes for grades 1-12 in one building and also maintained a second building for industrial arts classes.  The school also kept a playground and athletic field.

Jamestown maintained a public school until the [[junior high school]] and [[High school (North America)|high school]] was closed in 1980. The [[elementary school]] was closed in 1983.  The student population was always considered small compared to many other area public schools, and in the later years the enrollment fell to an average of between only six and eight students per grade level.  Jamestown residents are currently served by [[Concordia USD 333]] public school district.

Records from October 1984 show a Resolution to Transfer the property from USD 333 back to the City of Jamestown.  The main building has been demolished and only the [[gym]] stands today.

Jamestown High School athletic teams were known as the Jamestown [[Jayhawk (mascot)|Jayhawks]] and competed in the Pike Trail League, primarily made up of small local schools in the area.  Students participated in [[8-man football]], [[volleyball]], [[basketball]], and [[track & field]].<ref>[http://www.usd333.com/ Unified School District #333]</ref>
