The Office of Federal Programs provides district-wide support for students and teachers through Federal Programs. These funding opportunities benefit children with support at all grade levels in the educational process. The funding from these resources provides a focus on early literacy for children in Pre-Kindergarten through 12th grade, professional development, and innovative educational strategies that contribute to high educational standards for teachers and administrators to ensure that every child in the Jones County School district has equitable access to a high quality education. In addition, services are provided to all stakeholders including district personnel, administrators, teachers, support staff, students, parents, and the community at-large. Resources include Title I, I-A, I-D, Title II, Title III, Title IV, and Title V.
