It is truly a privilege to serve the Jasper-Troupsburg communities as your Superintendent of Schools. I have spent the past 24 years in education, working in a variety of roles—teacher, Instructional Coach, Curriculum Coordinator, and Principal—at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. My journey has taken me from the inner city of Rochester to the rural hills of Steuben County. I previously had the honor of serving as the Elementary Principal at Jasper-Troupsburg from 2010 to 2014, and I am beyond excited to return to a community that I hold so dear. 

At Jasper-Troupsburg, we are deeply rooted in the values of community, collaboration, and care. We understand that true success is not measured solely by academic achievement, but by fostering a sense of belonging and empowering our students with the skills to navigate an ever-changing world. Through a commitment to instructional excellence and a focus on each student's individual growth, we strive to inspire curiosity, critical thinking, and a lifelong love of learning. Whether in the classroom or through extracurricular activities, our goal is to help every student discover and develop their unique strengths and passions. 

As I transition back into the district, I look forward to reconnecting with our staff, students, and families. I am eager to work alongside our dedicated team to ensure that we continue to support one another and provide the best possible education for all of our students. Together, we will build a brighter future—one where our students are not only academically prepared but also equipped with the resilience, creativity, and collaboration skills they will need to succeed in the world. I also welcome the opportunity to connect with each of you—please know that my door is always open for a phone call or conversation. Thank you for being an integral part of this community, and I look forward to the journey ahead. 

Jason Oliver,

Superintendent
