District Office

From the Desk of Superintendent Barry Schmidt

Dear Jackson County Central Families

As we embark on the 2024-2025 academic year, I am thrilled to share some exciting updates and initiatives within our district.

We continue to invest in our curriculum, which is already showing promising growth and improvement. Additionally, we are implementing a Muti-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) for both academic and behavioral support, and we are expanding Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) district - wide.

Our dedication to building strong partnerships and relationships with all our stakeholders - students, families, and the broader community - remains unwavering. These connections are crucial for fostering a supportive and thriving educational environment.

Despite the challenges of declining enrollment and right-sizing the district, we continue to offer extensive programs that help prepare our students for the future. Furthermore, we have successfully secured several grants to enhance our student support services. These additional resources have been instrumental in reducing behavioral issues and promoting the mental health and well-being of our students.

Thank you for your continued support and dedication. Together, we can ensure a productive and successful school year. 

Barry Schmidt
