Members of the Jackson High School swim team line up prior to the first Southeastern Conference meet at the new aquatic facility. By Jeff Steers JTV Sports (October 1, 2021 1:55 PM) Without a lot of pomp and circumstance, Jackson Public School opened its new 499-seat natatorium for competition on Thursday, Sept. 30. Jackson easily defeated Ypsilanti Community 140-29 in the opening Southeastern Conference event. The pool is part of a $15.5 million project that includes a redesigned entryway into the building for indoor sporting events and enhanced security. Voters passed a nearly $87 million bond proposal in 2018 to fund the new aquatic center and enhancements to all buildings at JPS. JHS Athletic Director Jack Fairly said the school expects to host the SEC swim meet with the nine-lane pool that includes a practice area. The new aquatic center also allows Jackson to be able to have a diving competition at JHS. Previously the diving competitions were held prior to JHS meets at the Middle School at Parkside. Fairly said the Jackson Recreation Department is currently using the pool for aerobic classes. Those interested in using the pool would need to contact the Jackson Recreation Department for further details.…

In September, Jackson County became the second county in the state to be certified for making medication and treatment available to individuals with opioid use disorder incarcerated inside its jail(s). The certification was awarded by the Center for Behavioral Health and Justice (CBHJ) at Wayne State University’s School of Social Work and presented to the Jackson County Board of Commissioners to recognize the interdisciplinary partnerships in the county. The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office piloted their program in February of 2020, with the restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic looming. Through close collaboration with Victory Clinical Services, LifeWays CMH and Advanced Correctional Healthcare, the program survived the restrictions of COVID-19 and the transition to a new administration in the Sheriff’s Office. Sheriff Gary Schuette, who was elected in November 2020, prioritized the program, saying, "addressing opioid addiction in our jail was a top priority for me…
