The Jefferson Davis County School District has started an Extended School Day Program.

The two-hour program began Jan 24. Hours for the program are 3:15 p.m. until 5:15.

All four schools, J. E. Johnson, G. W. Carver, Jefferson Davis County Middle School and Jefferson Davis County High School will participate in this program that includes grades 3-10.

Transportation and healthy snacks will be provided.

Excellent teachers will offer tutoring and homework help with a focus on math and reading. This intensive learning will also be an effort to improve grade and test scores.

The program is sponsored by the ARP Learn More Grant and The Kirkland Group. Contact your child’s school for more information.
