Dr.Canter, Pepper Jo Bauerle, Kim Camarillo and Brandy Yarbrough are in town for TASA this week and had the opportunity to meet Vince Young!!
This past Friday night the Jourdanton Boys opened up their season at Texas Strength Systems
Danilo Lugo established himself as a force that few will be able to reckon with. Dani's 700-pound squat and 500- pound bench moved as if someone had turned off gravity. His 600-pound deadlift looked like he was just warming up. This performance earned Danilo the award for best lifter and a comfortable seat at the top of the THSPA state rankings.
Seniors Colten Brown and Xavier Tijerina placed forth.
Sophomore Colton Parrish placed fifth, as did freshmen Ryan Castellano and Caleb Green-Ondo
Senior Captain Donald Neal Parks dug down deep and showed his teammates what it means to compete with class, pride, and heart, fighting through an injured hand to pull a 535-pound deadlift and take second place.
Alek Hillman, Kairo Martinez, Jack Craig, Julian Ayala and Brandon Rodriquez also had strong performances in their first meet of the season.
The Jourdanton Girls will compete again Friday night.

Weather update :
The safety and well-being of our students is our priority . We are monitoring the weather conditions.

January is School Board Recognition Month and JISD is celebrating its trustees for their dedication and commitment to the district and its students.
The theme of this year’s School Board Recognition Month is Locally Elected, Community Connected, which highlights the connection between school trustees and their communities. School board members are the largest group of locally-elected officials in the state.
The JISD School Board will be honored during its January meeting that is scheduled for Tuesday, January 16th at 6:00pm.
Dan Troxell, executive director of the Texas Association of School Boards, applauded the efforts of volunteer trustees in providing leadership and good governance so that school districts can focus on educating the 5.4 million public schoolchildren in their care.
“Texas school boards are so important because they bring a deep understanding of the needs and aspirations of their local communities to their role,” Troxell said. “Boards lead their districts by providing oversight, setting goals, overseeing the budget, and selecting and evaluating the superintendent. These volunteers serve for the betterment of their communities.”
Board members serving Jourdanton ISD are: Vance Jupe, Vice-President,Kristi Schulte, Trustee,Phillip Netardus, Secretary,Kendall Schorsch, Trustee,Greg Vyvlecka, Trustee,Barbara Peeler, President and Nicole Rakowitz, Trustee
