Thank you for your interest in Jac-Cen-Del Schools and learning more about all of the opportunities we have to offer.  We provide a wide-range of academic programs and extracurricular activities to prepare students for success.  At JCD, we have a rich history in not only academics, but our extra-curricular programs as well.  Jac-Cen-Del is consistently ranked among the best of Southeastern Indiana.  In the most recent state report card, Jac-Cen-Del Community School Corporation received a "B" rating.  In addition, Jac-Cen-Del Elementary received a "B" rating while Jac-Cen-Del High School received an "A" rating.

In this technological age, we continuously strive to push innovating learning, such as Project Lead the Way (PLTW), in a wide array of courses throughout the district.  We have also invested a great deal to prepare our staff and students in the use of technology as every student in the district has an electronic device.

At Jac-Cen-Del, we have strong partnerships with the Southeastern Indiana Career Center, Ivy Tech, and Indiana University.  We also offer extra-curricular activities in programs such as music, art, robotics, and FFA just to name a few.  These activities, along with our athletic programs, gives all our students the opportunity to get involved in areas of interest.

We would welcome the opportunity to show you our district and what makes Jac-Cen-Del a truly special place to be.  Where we strive for academic and extracurricular excellence to give Every Student, Every Chance, Every Day.

Sincerely,

Sam Melton
Superintendent

Jac-Cen-Del Community Schools wants to remind families that the free school meals program is funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is ending. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, school corporations across the country have been operating with the use of a federal waiver that allowed them to feed every child for free through the end of this school year. The use of this waiver will not be available after this school year and corporations will return to the traditional eligibility requirements for free, reduced and paid meals. This means that for School Year 2022-2023, our school corporation will process free and reduced-price meal benefit applications.  To review how to apply for free and reduced meals after July 1, click here:

  Letter to Parents on May 23, 2022.  Notice of end of free school lunch waivers due to COVID-19.

Jac-Cen-Del is replacing the Txtwire messaging service with Eventlink.  Please click to the link below to register for school closings and delays.  Eventlink will be replacing our current txtwire service.
