Have You Seen Our Alabama State Department of Education Report Card?


Hello Family,

We are almost at the end of our first week of school in 2020.  It seems like the school year just started.  What a great school year it has been?! Our students have worked hard. We have also worked hard to support and encourage our students. It is paying off.

We hear a lot about the performance of students in Alabama. But, do you really know how our school is performing?  The Alabama State Department of Education publishes a report card for every school. The report card includes test scores, absenteeism rates, student demographics, and teacher demographics.

You'll be glad to know our school scored an overall score of 100%.  You can see how our students performed in specific academic areas in the report. You can even compare that score to other schools in the county and state.

If you'd like to review our school's report card, click here. Select Jefferson County and Jefferson County International Baccalaureate.  If you need help accessing the report and/or reviewing the information in the report, click here.

Happy Reading!

Adolescent Drug Use: Part 2

MEET LAURA  Laura Hope Laws was an active member of her Atlanta church’s youth group. She was known for helping people in a time of need, but she couldn’t help herself—she had a heroin use disorder. At 13, Laura experimented with alcohol and marijuana; at age 14 she started misusing prescription pain medications prescribed for a broken jaw, which led to an opioid use disorder. When her doctor quit prescribing them, she took other people’s pills and eventually turned to a cheaper and more available drug: heroin. She reached out to her family and they helped with treatment programs. Laura eventually spent 30 days in a residential treatment program, but the drugs were stronger than she was, and she relapsed and started taking heroin again. In the end, Laura overdosed on a mixture of the opioid morphine, alcohol, and cocaine when she was just 17. This is an example of drug use progression. At the same age as some of our children, Laura started experimenting with drugs and alcohol....

The Importance of Extracurricular Activities

Hi Family, School is in and we are getting into our study and homework routines.  Our children are learning.  The teachers are teaching.  The classroom routines are well on the way.  What more could there be?  Well, there are the extracurricular activities offered through the school.  Are you on the fence about your child being involved in extracurricular activities?  Let's talk about the benefits. Cultural Integration Many new students can experience “culture shock” when they first arrive at JCIB PG Campus. It's literally a whole new world. Some are in a school far from home with new students and new teachers.  The teaching style may be very different from what they are accustomed to. Getting involved in extracurricular activities can help students overcome this sensation and allow them to intimately understand the culture at their new school in a way that the typical classroom environment may not provide.
