~Memorial Park Elementary School begins student ID badge implementation on December 11, 2024~

After product and integration delays, Jasper City Schools is proud to introduce a new student ID card system.  Student IDs feature multiple measures to promote student safety and provide services to our students.  Each ID includes the student name, grade level, school, and photograph.  Additionally, a QR code provides students with secure and convenient access of our network.  Furthermore, the student cards have a UPC code that is used for our child nutrition program and library media services.  Lastly, each card is embedded with a chip that integrates with our transportation system.  This provides the bus driver with an accurate roster, route, and health information for each student on their bus.  Jasper City School is one of only a few school districts in the state to utilize this Zonar technology.  This would not be possible without the support of our parents and the Walker Area Community Foundation.  More information will follow from each school as we begin implementation.  Memorial Park Elementary School begins implementation December 11, 2024.  Other schools will be soon to follow.

The Alabama State Department of Education has released its annual report card, highlighting the performance of the several systems across the state. We are thrilled to announce that the Jasper City School District earned an impressive grade of 90/A.

This remarkable achievement is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and collaboration of our students, teachers, staff, and administration, across all Jasper City Schools. It reflects our commitment to excellence and shared focus on providing the best education for our schools.

Congratulations and heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to this outstanding accomplishment. Together, we are showing what it means to be #JasperProud!

“Monday night (October 28, 2024) we proudly recognized JCS Technology Director, Susan Chandler, for her recent recognition as the Connections IT Ultimate Superhero award recipient. When the nomination form came in, it was easy to recommend Susan Chandler for this award because she embodies all of the elements that this national award recognizes. We all know that Susan really does have Superhero powers and special talents in the world of Information Technology. She has been dedicated to her work at Jasper City Schools and has made us a better district. Her vision, organization, and energy for making things happen in our district is unparalleled. Our board also presented her with a Resolution for her outstanding work. So, please join me in recognizing Susan Chandler for this prestigious award."
