Jefferson County Schools

A federal lawsuit said two Jefferson County school bus drivers were suspended in retaliation for attending demonstrations in the nation’s capital. Jefferson County Schools said the employees were placed on paid leave while under investigation for possible illegal activity connected to that event.

At least two Jefferson County School employees are under investigation by the school district following last week’s protest of Congress certifying state election results. The two employees in question are school bus drivers Tina Renner and Pamela McDonald. The women are being investigated for possible illegal activity in connection to Wednesday's violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol and for “threatening” Facebook posts.

A letter from Jefferson County’s superintendent of schools announcing a snow day for her county went viral on Twitter and even made the website of PEOPLE magazine.

U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos heard from principals, teachers, custodial staff, a band director, students and parents - all from Jefferson County Schools - who shared positive feedback on the district’s approach to fall 2020.
