[3] In 2006 the school proposed spending $7,162,560 to build its current 40,273-square-foot (3,741.5 m2) elementary facility.
[4] Hartshorne Public Schools supervises the elementary academic program, and for grades 7-12 students attend Hartsthorne public schools, with Jones acting as their dormitory only.
