Our buses will use alternate routes for student drop-off in the Crooked Run and Trace Fork areas. Please note that if your child's bus was unable to operate this morning, it will not operate this afternoon.

If a bus is unable to safely deliver students due to high water, students will be transported back to Gilmore Elementary School, which remains accessible via Independence Road.

Good evening. This is a reminder that tomorrow, May 29, 2026, Jackson County Schools will have a three-hour early dismissal, which is the last day of the school year for all students. If your child rides a bus, it will arrive at the drop-off location 3 hours before the normal drop-off time. As always, you can check the Zonar app to see the exact location of your child's bus at any given time. Please have a safe and wonderful summer.
