We discuss the school’s creation, its unique mission in the district, and the successes Early College High students and teachers are making. We’ll also hear from West Tennessee Teacher of the Year, Bob Sparks - and students as teachers and staff at JCM-ECH preparing them for success now - and after high school.
This morning, we’ll visit with Dr. Shari Baldwin, principal at South Side High School. She’ll recap her first semester in the big seat, and provide an overview of the exciting programs and activities at the South Jackson campuses.
In this episode of For the District, we shine a spotlight on the dedicated coaches behind the Greenpower Racing teams from Jackson-Madison County Schools. Hear how educators from Community Montessori, North Parkway, Rose Hill, Jackson Academic, Northeast, and Malesus helped guide their students through a season of engineering, teamwork, and perseverance—culminating in impressive first-place victories for Jackson Academic STEAM Academy and Malesus STEM Innovation Center at the prestigious Talladega Invitational.
We love the Bemis Bubble but the South Side Band has benefited from trips north of the Forked Deer River to perform with other JMCSS bands. Band director Mr. David Sinclair joins us to discuss the growth of fine arts, the impact of the Mass Band initiative on JMCSS, and what competition season has been like for the Marching Hawks. This is Episode 8.
