At JCCS, we are committed to the safety and well-being of OUR students and all stakeholders. As a community, it is imperative that we work together to minimize the spread of COVID-19. The Georgia Department of Education released its K-12 Recovery Plan as a guideline for schools and districts to take the appropriate steps and precautions for students and staff to return to school. Georgia's K-12 Recovery Plan (rev071320)

The Jasper County Board of Education will develop a plan based on these guidelines that can be realistically implemented while promoting safety. More information will follow in the next few weeks.

We are looking forward to a safe and healthy start to the 2020-2021 school year.  Let's all work together to defeat COVID-19 in our community.

Consumer Warning from the FDA Regarding Hand Sanitizer

The FDA is warning consumers and health care providers that the agency has seen a sharp increase in hand sanitizer products that are labeled to contain ethanol (also known as ethyl alcohol) but that have tested positive for methanol contamination. Methanol, or wood alcohol, is a substance that can be toxic when absorbed through the skin or ingested and can be life-threatening when ingested. The agency is aware of adults and children ingesting hand sanitizer products contaminated with methanol that has led to recent adverse events including blindness, hospitalizations, and death.

Methanol is not an acceptable active ingredient for hand sanitizers and must not be used due to its toxic effects. FDA’s investigation of methanol in certain hand sanitizers is ongoing. The agency will provide additional information as it becomes available.

Consumers who have been exposed to hand sanitizer containing methanol and are experiencing symptoms should seek immediate treatment for potential reversal of toxic effects of methanol poisoning. Substantial methanol exposure can result in nausea, vomiting, headache, blurred vision, permanent blindness, seizures, coma, permanent damage to the nervous system or death. Although all persons using these products on their hands are at risk for methanol poisoning, young children who accidently ingest these products and adolescents and adults who drink these products as an alcohol (ethanol) substitute, are most at risk.

Hand Sanitizer Recalled by the FDA

The Governor’s Office has announced a Statewide initiative to map wireless carriers in support of education. The goal is to draw a clear picture of what wireless access really looks like in our State by creating maps to assist with decision making.

Below is the press release and attached are supporting images and information that you can use to spread the word. Learn more about this initiatve at https://gov.georgia.gov/press-releases/2020-06-23/state-launches-internet-speedtest-pilot-schools.

Did you know that the greatest risk to a child isn’t riding a bus, but approaching or leaving one. STOP means STOP! As you’ll see in this video, it’s just not a bus you’re stopping for, it’s a bus full of students.

Students are going back to school following the holiday break. Remember: STOP means STOP! Watch the proper way to stop for a school bus, and what NOT to do. Learn more at NHTSA.gov/SchoolBus

Have some exciting information to share on a JCCS graduate? Send your alumni updates to our PR email at jccs_pr@jasper.k12.ga.us for posting to our Facebook page.

Bus Drivers Needed!
