Good Things and Bulldog Brags

 
Bulldog with megaphone saying Good Things
A new semester is a really GOOD THING!

A new semester is a time to reflect on the activities of the past semester and set goals and expectations for the new one. Also, the spring semester is B-U-S-Y! Just a sampling of what is happening now or coming soon:
  • Basketball season is in full swing
  • Soccer is beginning
  • Softball, baseball, tennis, track, and golf are right around the corner
  • Show season for 4-H and FFA 
  • Fishing continues
  • STAAR/EOC testing
  • Spring Break
  • Prom, banquets, luncheons, and award programs
  • Field trips 
  • Band concerts
  • Community events
  • and finally……..GRADUATION!

Superintendent John Seybold and the Jasper ISD Board of Trustees are proud to recognize the following:

  • Third Graders demonstrated remarkable growth in Math and Science on middle-of-year assessments--almost a year's growth in math and OVER a year's growth in science!
  • First Grade presented a wonderful Christmas Music program before the break
  • Junior High Students are getting ready for UIL
  • Representatives from Jasper-Newton Electric Cooperative delivered a 20-minute presentation to Seniors highlighting available scholarship opportunities. They also conducted a separate 20-minute presentation for Sophomores and Juniors focused on ETREYS (East Texas Rural Electric Youth Seminar). JHS students were very respectful and attentive throughout both presentations.
