Jarrell ISD Superintendent Dr. Toni Hicks is the newly elected representative to TACS's Executive Committee. TACS (Texas Association of Community Schools) is an organization representing public school districts across the state. The organization's purpose is to improve instruction in public schools, support educators with professional growth, and work with state lawmakers to provide quality education programs.

The district is exploring the option of a four-day school week. The starting point is a survey to get your feedback on whether this is something our families would find beneficial.

Several school districts across the state already operate on a four-day school week, with more districts adopting the model. Click on the link to take the survey and give us your feedback.
