Happy New Year, South Jackson Eagles!
Welcome back to 2025! We’re so excited to embark on a great second semester filled with learning, growth, and connection as we continue our adventure together. Let’s make this year one to remember!
Please note that schools will be closed tomorrow due to inclement weather. Stay safe and warm, and we look forward to seeing everyone back soon to continue soaring to success.
We’re also looking forward to seeing some of our favorite guys at Doughnuts with Dudes next Thursday morning! It’s always a joy to kick off the day with our Eagles and the special men in their lives.
Mark your calendars for Winter Wonderland on January 23—a fun-filled math and literacy event for the whole family! We can’t wait to share this exciting evening with you all.
Thank you for being a part of our South Jackson family. Let’s make the most of this second semester and keep soaring!
Stay Safe, Accountable, On-task, and Respectful (SOAR)!

Safety is our top priority during arrival and dismissal. Help everyone stay on time and out of harms way by following our trusty eagle timeline and car rider protocols. Staff will be on hand at the front of the school everyday from 7:00-7:35 and 2:35-2:55 to ensure student safety.
Did you know we have our own Little Free Library? Located in the back parking lot near the trail entrance, this tiny library is filled with books waiting to be discovered. Feel free to stop by to take a book or leave a children's book for others to borrow; let's keep SJ Eagles reading!
Here Comes The Bus for the Jackson County School System is now live! Here Comes The Bus allows for families and students to track the location of their school bus. The app will notify families of morning and afternoon arrival, and is a great transportation enhancement. Please note the app may take 24-48 hours to update. If after a problem with the application arises following the update window, please contact the JCSS Transportation Department via email at transportation@jcss.us. #SuccessatJCSS #AllAroundExcellence
