June 2023
West Side Open House
Summer has just begun, but don't forget to mark your calendars for August 1st and join us for an exciting Open House event at Jackson County High School!
Advanced Content Supplemental Assignments
For the 2023-2024 SY, the expectation for all students enrolled in Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate courses is to participate in supplemental work prior to the beginning of their AP/IB course. The goal of supplemental assignments is to build prior knowledge and provide a preview of the first unit of study for each advanced course. We believe this will better prepare students for academic growth and the overall success of our advanced coursework programs. Assignments are not meant to be punitive, but to prepare students for the rigor of advanced coursework.
Students enrolled in 1st Semester AP/IB courses will complete supplemental assignments before returning to school in August.
Students enrolled in 2nd Semester AP/IB courses will complete supplemental assignments before courses begin in January.
Students should complete the coursework only for the courses in which they are enrolled. Click on the hyperlink(s) on the attached document to locate assignments. Students should reach out to their AP/IB teacher with any specific questions.
If you have questions about which semester you have AP/IB courses, please email Mrs. Gillespie (mgillespie@jcss.us) or Mrs. Phillips (kphillips@jcss.us).
