School Board Recognition Week

The Jones County School District will join districts across the state to thank school board members for their leadership and service to our local school district and community during South Dakota School Board Recognition Week from February 21-25, 2022. 

This is a great opportunity to recognize our school board for their dedication to our children and our community. As elected leaders, school board members serve as the link between the school and community members. They work diligently for our students, staff and community.

The Board Members currently serving Jones County School District and their years of service are: 
Jessie Tucker, Board President – 3 years
Levi Newsam, Board Vice President – 2 years
Andy Rankin, Board Member – 9 years
Scott Mathews, Board Member – 14.5 years
Rachel Talich, Board Member – 2 years

This group is responsible for setting the vision of and goals for the district and strives to provide a quality education for our students. The school board also hires quality educators, adopts policies and evaluates progress while always keeping the best interests of our students in mind. 

During School Board Recognition Week, the Jones County School District invites students, staff and community members to take part in thanking its school board members.
