Recent Jonesville High School graduate, Hannah Spencer, a current freshman at the University of Alabama Honors college, has earned a spot on the Crimson Tide Women’s Division I rowing team.
According to Hannah, “This has been a great experience and I’m loving the opportunity that University of Alabama has given me but also remember the support from my community back home. My years in competitive cheer helped to physically prepare me and band helped provide leadership skills that have been useful in my experience.”
Hannah, as a valedictorian for the class of 2023, understands the importance of taking her coursework seriously and has expressed how well her AP courses, as well as her economics class, at JHS have prepared her for the college workload. She is maintaining strong grades, in addition to a part-time job and working out with her team six days per week. Hannah is double majoring in Political Science and History with a minor in Russian.
There is still a lot of hard work to put in between now and spring season, and Hannah is learning about what it means to be an NCAA division 1 athlete but she’s proven that she is up for the challenge.
There is still heavy competition to earn a spot on the varsity team, and it will be an ongoing process for the next few months but with how much she is loving her coaches, her teammates, and the sport, she is excited to see where this takes her.
She will be competing in UA’s fall regatta on the Black Warrior river in Tuscaloosa on October 28.

These are the boilers at Jonesville Middle School. They are over 20 years old and are nearing end of life. This is one of the projects the committee felt should be addressed. We replaced the boilers at Williams Elementary school last year and we have seen reduced usage as a result. Boilers are much more energy efficient now.

These are our Pathways students who went on a "talent tour" at Aertech! The students learned a lot about manufacturing parts for the aerospace industry and what a job there would look like. The kids represented the school well. Aertech were very generous hosts!
This is one of the restrooms in the middle school. The restrooms have decades and decades of use and need to be renovated. This will improve the accessibility of the restrooms and the appearance which are showing their age. It was also an item the student committee I met with said needed to be done.
One thing to remember when looking at the replacement of equipment is the volume of use these facilities get every day. They get a tremendous amount of use every day. Now add that up over the decades.
Another point of pride! Please see attached images. Jenna Stanton is a recent graduate from JCS. This is an update she provided on how things are going for her. What I love about this is that she said the position was something she always wanted. And what did she do? She went out and got it. She stayed focused and put in the work. JCS is proud of this Comet in D.C.!

There are people that have questions about the ESSER funds. Here is a short answer. Go Comets!
Remember, tomorrow I will be offering a tour of the facilities and projects that we are looking to replace/renovate. It will begin at 10:00 a.m. and we will be meeting at the high school library. Hope to see you then!

Good morning! I'm sending out a reminder that I will be giving a tour on Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m. to show what projects are on the bond proposal. I will be able to answer any questions you have. We will meet at the high school library. Hope to see you then!
Reminder that tonight's bond Q&A has been moved to Williams Elementary School. It begins at 5:30. Hope to see you there!
Fund balance questions answered!
This is the Jonesville High School chiller. It provides air conditioning throughout the building. It's the only school building that has air conditioning throughout it. It is the original unit. We had to have it serviced recently and we learned that the compressor and the control board are no longer manufactured. Additionally, the filter has to be replaced and the refrigerant it uses is being phased out.
The committee felt this was important to replace as the high school serves many functions aside from academic and athletic. We host other community events here as well.
I need to make a correction about the bond Q&A for tomorrow, Tuesday, October 3rd. Someone pointed out that the high school will be running multiple games, so I am moving the Q&A to the elementary library. It will still be at 5:30 just at the elementary library now. Hope to see you tomorrow! Go Comets!
