Jefferson County Schools has been partnering with weather and emergency service professionals to track tropical storm Ida as it progresses. In an abundance of caution, JCS has alerted our inclement weather response team for condition checks and building preparation. Should the storm impact require us to change our regular school schedule we would alert you through our online channels, the JCSWV App, text messages, and phone calls. Thank you for your support as we work to keep students and staff safe.
