Ultimately my experience at Jasper County High school had nothing to do with the school system or administration. They were not involved at all other than the few teachers who actually cared. If you weren't a star pupil at this school or popular then you were overlooked and ignored.

There were great parts about being a part of Jasper County Schools but I think the part that I liked least was the lack of dual enrollment opportunities.

Jasper County High School is located in a small town where there are disadvantages regarding opportunities to students. There are very few CTAE pathways offered compared to other schools. The school can improve by adding more clubs, sports, and/or pathways.
