Digital Timekeeping System

  • Jefferson Parish Schools is the largest school system in Louisiana and the second largest employer in Jefferson Parish. With 6,400 employees at over 80 sites that spread from Grand Isle to Kenner, it's well past time to modernize the district's antiquated paper and pencil timekeeping system. JP Schools is in the process of implementing a new digital system that will make our schools and systems more safe, efficient and modern.
