2022 Buckle Up Phone Down ShowDown
The J-Click club is reaching out to the Students, Families, Faculty and Friends of Jackson High School for their help in the 2022 Buckle Up Phone Down ShowDown. They are participating in this contest with 64 other schools across the state to increase awareness of distracted driving and the dangers that can come from driving distracted. J-Click is asking for you to take the pledge and help to make Missouri's Roads safer and in turn also try to win the BUPD Contest! They are trying to reach as many students, faculty and community members as possible.
Since J-Click started, they have significantly increased seatbelt usage at JHS. Please help us in this endeavor, as distracted driving has become a major issue on our roadways. Let's make a difference JR2! Take the pledge today. Make sure to enter Jackson High School Class 6. You can only enter one time.
Buckle Up-Phone Down-Arrive Alive Jackson!

Jackson Opportunities in Business Event
Our goal is to have at least 50 businesses attend this event hosted in our Event Center. All students will get an opportunity to stop by and see some of the job opportunities that are available in our community. It is our hope that students dress nicely on this day and use the necessary skills as they interact with the business leaders that will be present. This means that students should be able to introduce themselves, properly shake someone's hand, and ask important questions. Ultimately, students will get out of this event what they put into it.
Students will attend this event with their grade-level peers and will have about an hour to explore the job opportunities or career paths that will be available to them. We will send out a list of businesses attending once it is finalized closer to the event.
If you would like more information on this event or know of a business that would like to participate, please contact Dr. Harrell or Brian Gerau (Director of the Jackson Area Chamber of Commerce), 243-8131
