Congratulations to all of our elementary schools on their acheivements!
Today was a great day for Jackson County Public Schools. I am so proud of our students that participated and competed today from McKee, Sand Gap and Tyner. I am thankful for all the hard work that our coaches devote to their students. It was great to see all the parents, grandparents, teachers and principals, together in one school celebrating our kids. A special thank you goes out to Sand Gap Elementary for hosting such a wonderful day.
