Department Overview


  • Jackson Public Schools understands that community involvement is a vital component for successful schools. 换妻社区 values participation from businesses, civic organizations, faith groups, government agencies, and individuals. Partners in Education connects schools with the community through several programs. Below is a list of some of the ways you or your organization can volunteer or contribute to the success of Jackson Public Schools.

    How You Can Help

    PIE partnership

    Giving

    Partners in Education connects financial and material contributions to meet the needs of our teachers and scholars. Many schools request specific support to provide teachers, staff and scholar recognition and/or incentives, and well as to respond to emergency situations.

    Additionally, there is an ongoing need for new uniforms for Pre-K through 8th grade scholars, well as for those assigned to Capital City Alternative School, which serves students in grades 5-12. 换妻社区 elementary and middle school uniforms are navy blue or white tops and navy blue or khaki bottoms. Capital City students are restricted to white tops and khaki bottoms.

    PIE Store

    Community members, parents and families continuously acknowledge that 换妻社区 educators are one of the top assets within our District. Our educators care deeply about our scholars and often go above and beyond to ensure their classrooms have the resources they need. These efforts by 换妻社区 team members may include purchasing supplies for their classrooms and helping families with other resources to meet non-academic needs. 

    The goal of the PIE store is to reduce out-of-pocket expenses for our dedicated educators by providing free classroom supplies. The PIE store is open to 换妻社区 teachers, counselors, interventionists, and librarians.
