A Letter From the Superintendent - Summer '24

As we open the pages of this latest edition of Fly Together, I am filled with immense pride and joy. This issue is particularly special, as it brings together the stories of our distinguished alumni, spanning more than six decades. It is a testament to the enduring spirit and success of our graduates, who have gone on to make remarkable contributions to their fields and communities.

In these stories, you will find a rich tapestry of experiences, showcasing the diverse paths our alumni have taken. From bankers, business people, and healthcare professionals to entrepreneurs, agricultural standouts, and public servants, their journeys highlight the robust foundation provided by Jasper County Schools. Each narrative is a vivid reminder of the power of education in shaping futures and the lasting impact of our schools on individual lives and the community at large.

This issue is more than a collection of stories; it is a celebration of our interconnectedness. The alumni featured here not only reflect on their own successes, but also emphasize the importance of giving back and supporting the next generation. Their commitment to fostering growth and opportunity for today’s students underscores a common thread of community and collaboration that binds us all.

As we celebrate these achievements, we are reminded of our shared responsibility to continue nurturing the potential within each student. The youth of today are the leaders of tomorrow, and their aspirations and dreams are the building blocks of our future. By working together, we can ensure that Jasper County Schools remain a beacon of excellence, preparing our students for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.

I invite you to delve into these inspiring stories and reflect on the collective strength and resilience of our community. Let us celebrate the successes of our alumni and reaffirm our commitment to the education and well-being of every student in Jasper County.

Together, we fly higher.

Warm regards,



Joe Sornberger
