Laura Young ECB Publishing, Inc. Jefferson County K-12 School (JCS) held Tiger Night on Tuesday, Oct. 17, with multiple goals in mind. It was standing room only in the cafeteria, which had been transformed into a celebration hall, as families, staff, community partners, local leaders and vendors gathered for a night rich with information, interaction and tasty food. JCS Principal Jackie Pons welcomed the crowd and thanked the many stakeholders present for the event. The program began with the annual Title 1 meeting, led by Lisa Roderick, the Jefferson County Schools Grant Manager. Her presentation described features of this funding source and how it benefits JCS, a Title 1 school. Detai
