📊✨ Beyond The Bell: Making an Impact in JCSD

In addition to our districtwide 30 For 30 reading initiative, JCSD students and staff have been working hard Beyond The Bell to improve student outcomes—and the results are promising.

Since launching on January 27, we are now serving approximately 400 students through after-school intervention/tutoring on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. With a 1:10 teacher-to-student ratio, our scholars are receiving targeted, small-group support designed to meet their individual needs.

Students are engaged in meaningful learning experiences including homework support, direct instruction, digital learning platforms, and collaborative small-group work. Our teachers are also working together to analyze student data and set goals, ensuring every child gets the support they need to succeed. Student tutors are even stepping in to provide additional one-on-one and small-group reinforcement.

From poetry slams and recipe writing to math challenges and literacy competitions, learning continues in fun, creative, and impactful ways after the school day ends. 📚✏️

We encourage families to continue supporting learning at home by ensuring students read at least 30 minutes each day and access resources through ClassLink.

🚨 We still have available spots for middle and high school students (with transportation in select areas)!
For more information, contact Dr. Paula Murphy or Mrs. Jasmine Holman.

Together, we are maximizing the potential of every JCSD scholar—Beyond The Bell. 🌟

Pastor Recognizes Dual Enrollment Scholars with $100 Gifts at JCSD Celebration of Learning

During the Jasper County School District Stakeholders’ Strategic Planning session at St. Stephen AME Church in Hardeeville, Reverend Vanessa Johnson recognized a group of JCSD Dual Enrollment students for their academic success. The students all earned A’s and made the Dean’s List during the Summer 2025 semester.

Rev. Johnson gifted each student $100 to celebrate their achievement and encourage their continued success.

“We just believe in supporting our young people in every endeavor, and education is an area we invest in,” said Rev. Johnson. "Whenever we can, you know, from the youngest to the oldest, we just want to see them succeed. And an important part of that success is for them to be well-rounded and educated."

Jasper County School District's Dual Enrollment program allows high school students to take college courses while still enrolled in high school and earn both high school and college credit.

Students recognized include:
AlexE’ah Nelson, Ja’Nya Brown, Ayana Gant, Skyler Badger, Imani Rivers, Joseph Ferguson, Jamie Esquivel, Kara Loyd, Sage Williams, and Kenyatta Singleton.
