Earlier today, the fire department was on campus as a precautionary measure. A staff member accidentally made contact with the fire alarm panel, causing the protective case to dislodge. Following our safety protocols, the fire department was immediately notified and responded to ensure the building was safe and secure.

✅ There was no fire or emergency, and all students and staff remained safe throughout the process.

We appreciate your understanding and support as we continue to prioritize the safety and well-being of our school community. If you have any questions, please contact the school office.

Last week, students in Mrs. Taylor-Parnell’s fifth-grade math and science class participated in a series of fun, hands-on activities to strengthen their measurement skills.

On Tuesday, students worked in pairs using centimeter rulers to measure various pictures. After recording their measurements, they colored each image to complete the assignment—an engaging way to combine math with creativity and teamwork.

The learning continued with a lively “Metric System Fashion Show”! Each student proudly wore a word representing a unit of measure from the metric system, turning the classroom into a runway of learning. This interactive activity helped reinforce their understanding of metric units in a fun and memorable way.

The students showed great enthusiasm and focus throughout the week, proving that learning can be both educational and exciting!

Jasper County School District is excited to announce a new partnership with Real Champions, Inc., an organization dedicated to becoming trusted advocates for children by establishing long-term relationships that lead them to greater opportunities in life, school, and work. Real Champions is not a typical mentoring organization — they pay their mentors so that they can devote full time (40 hours per week) to working with the children they serve.

We are extending a great big thank you to Mr. Jack Kemp for organizing this special event in Sun City, where we had the opportunity to connect with residents and showcase the important work taking place in Jasper County School District. We are proud to share that supporting the Jasper County school system is a high priority for many Sun City residents, and we are grateful for their partnership.

Key Highlights from the Meeting:
- District priorities: school safety, quality education, and restoring trust with families and the community.
- Ongoing safety initiatives, including SROs on each campus, regular safety drills, and stronger family partnerships.
- Review of student performance data, highlighting growth in SC Ready and Algebra 1 scores.
- Updates on Dual Enrollment and Career Programs, providing students with early college and workforce opportunities.
- Financial transparency efforts, including improved systems, fiscal accountability, and upcoming audit goals.
- A renewed call for community partnerships to support student success across Jasper County.
