Yesterday, our Content Specialists and Lead Teachers from every campus came together to prepare for a successful 2026-2027 school year.

Teams collaborated to finalize pacing guides, refine curriculum maps, and begin planning engaging lessons that will help every scholar succeed from day one. As Superintendent Dr. Laura Hickson shared in her welcome message, our goal is to "recognize, nurture, and build upon the brilliance that already exists within each child."

We're excited for the year ahead as we continue building on the brilliance of Jasper, together. πŸ’™πŸ’›
