Potential Severe Weather Advisory: September 26, 2025
Jasper County Parents and Staff,
In close coordination with the National Weather Service (NWS) and the Jasper County Emergency Operations Center (EOC), we are actively monitoring a developing tropical storm system that may impact our area. Potential hazards include high winds, heavy rainfall, and the possibility of localized flooding.
As of noon today, September 26, 2025, the NWS acknowledges uncertainty regarding the storm's exact track. Current projections loosely indicate that inclement weather could begin affecting our area on Monday afternoon, September 29, 2025.
We will gain greater clarity over the next 48 hours as the system develops. We commit to notifying all parents and staff of our operational status for Monday, September 29, 2025, no later than Sunday evening.

Thank you: Sun City Veterans Association Donation
We are deeply thankful for the Sun City Veterans Association! 🙏
Their continued generosity is a game-changer for the MCJROTC scholars at RSAE. Commander Dale Dietz emphasized that the donation is part of a mission to help cadets "do good things in life," which is why they presented new Color Guard Rifles and a substantial check.
This support is essential! It helps fund extra training and pay for field trips to places like Army airfields and Coast Guard bases, ensuring all cadets can participate.
As 1stSGT Brian Dear puts it, their support is a powerful example of the community actively investing in youth development.

Student Spotlight: Dual Enrollment Summer Success
While many enjoyed summer break, 46 dedicated JCSD students pushed forward by enrolling in college-level courses all summer long — from Public Speaking to Biological Science, English Composition, Art Appreciation, and more!
Not only did they complete rigorous coursework, but many also earned spots on the Dean’s List (All A’s) and Honor Roll (A’s & B’s). 👏👏
This fall, we’re proud to have 91 scholars enrolled in our Dual Enrollment Program and already off to a strong start!
💡 Current sophomores, juniors, or seniors: Want to join this prestigious program? Visit your campus Dual Enrollment Room and see Dr. Murphy to check your eligibility.
🌟 Congratulations to all of our scholars — your hard work and dedication inspire us all! 🌟

Bus Driver Brunch & Brainstorm
Teamwork truly makes the dream work! Dr. Laura Hickson, Interim Superintendent, joined our transportation team for a productive brunch and strategy session focused on enhancing the rider experience for our scholars.
For over an hour, the team collaborated, shared ideas, and enjoyed a delicious meal while aligning on key priorities:
- Partnering with local law enforcement to address drivers who fail to stop for school buses.
- Ensuring consistent approaches to student behavior on buses.
- Working together to navigate traffic challenges in Hardeeville and during drop-off/pick-up at the Ridgeland Campus.
We’re grateful to our transportation team for their dedication to keeping our students safe and supported every day!
