Students enrolled in the JC CATE career pathway courses recently had an exciting opportunity to visit Boeing South Carolina as part of the DreamLearners Program. During the visit, students toured the facility and gained valuable insights into careers in STEM, advanced manufacturing, and aerospace.

Due to the forecasted winter storm and the potential for ice and snow accumulation, Jasper County School District will hold a half-day session on Tuesday, January 21, 2025. All evening athletic activities will be rescheduled for a later date.

Please note that Wednesday, January 22, 2025, is already designated as a Professional Development Day, meaning that there will be no students in attendance at schools. Our faculty and staff will work from home for the scheduled professional development activities on this day.

We will assess the situation for Thursday, January 23, 2025, and provide an update on Wednesday, January 22, 2025.

We encourage everyone to stay safe, and we look forward to returning to regular school activities as soon as it is safe to do so.
