Welcome to James Nash State High School. My name is Jackson Dodd and I am very proud to be the principal of such a great school.
Firstly, let me thank you for trusting our professional staff with the responsibility of supporting your children through adolescence and positioning them with the best opportunity for success in the next phase of their lives. We are humbled by this and commit to doing our utmost for your children.
James Nash State High School delivers much more than great academic outcomes, our school provides students with a broad education that addresses the social, emotional and personal needs of young people in the 21st Century. Achieving such an outcome relies on empowering our learners and in doing so providing students with the opportunity to play a part in driving their learning as well as accepting responsibility for their actions and accountability for the outcomes.
This function provides powerful preparation for students as they move into work or further study.
Finally, we recognise that a quality education is a significant ingredient in a successful life and as such we invest heavily in the quality of our teaching. This, coupled with a diverse curriculum and a strong values set continues to prepare well rounded young adults to make amazing contributions to our communities.
Join us on the learning journey as we engage, empower and excel.
