News & Announcements

JCSD's Student Services department is committed to assisting anyone who needs guidance or simply someone to talk to. Life can be difficult and can spiral out of control if you don't seek help. If you need help, talk to your teacher, principal, school counselor or school social worker. Our team of trained professionals is equipped to walk with you on your journey.

If you or someone you know has thoughts of suicide, immediate help is available. Call, text, or chat 988 to speak to a trained crisis counselor offering support 24/7/365. #SuicidePreventionMonth

Starting a conversation can help save a life. Studies show people who are having thoughts of suicide feel relief when someone asks about them in a caring way. Learn more about how to help support someone you care about through a crisis at nami.org/suicidepreventionmonth

We had a great first day at JCSD and are looking forward to another year of being Student-Centered...Future-Focused!

Welcome Back -- Open House -- Off-site, In-Person Registration -- First Day of School Reminders

A lively celebration marked the start of the 2024-2025 school year for faculty and staff at Jasper County School District. This day marked the first day on the job for Acting Superintendent, Dr. Sam Whack, Jr., who welcomed both returning and new members of the district. Dr. Kiana N. Pendleton, principal of Laurel Magnet School of the Arts, a National Blue Ribbon School in Laurel, MS, delivered an inspiring keynote address. The teammates from RSAE won the coveted spirit award. Following the kick-off pep rally, district leaders conducted a series of professional development seminars to ensure that the district can operate cohesively as we serve the children of Jasper County. The workshops will take place through the end of the week. We are eagerly looking forward to opening our doors to students on August 19, 2024.
