Irwin County High School Alumni Spotlight: Jamie Richardson, Class of 2007
We are proud to recognize Jamie Richardson, a 2007 graduate of Irwin County High School, as this month’s Alumni Spotlight. Jamie’s journey since graduation is a testament to hard work, integrity, and a heart for service—both professionally and in his community.
After high school, Jamie entered the workforce and quickly distinguished himself through his strong work ethic and commitment to excellence. His attention to detail and drive to do things the right way have become defining traits throughout his career.
Jamie currently serves as a Security Analyst at Southwell, where his dedication has not gone unnoticed. He has earned recognition as both Employee of the Month and Employee of the Year—honors that reflect his professional skill, commitment, and value to the organization. Known for his teamwork and positive attitude, Jamie contributes to a positive and productive work environment.
Outside of his professional career, Jamie is deeply involved in his community. He serves as a deacon and the Media Director at Glorious Deliverance, his local ministry. No matter where he is—on the job or at church—Jamie is known for his dependability and servant leadership.
Jamie’s commitment to making a difference is shared by his wife, Kasey Richardson, who also serves the Irwin County community as a Dual Enrollment Instructor at Irwin County High School. Her work in preparing students for healthcare careers is shaping the next generation of professionals and making a lasting impact.
Jamie Richardson’s life is a powerful example of how dedication, faith, and service can come together to inspire others. We are proud to celebrate him as an outstanding member of the Irwin County High School alumni family.

Important Calendar Update for Irwin County Schools :
Due to the unusual number of weather days this year, Irwin County Schools have amended the district calendar.
Friday, March 14th will now be a regular school day for students.
Please update your calendars and ensure your child is present. We appreciate your understanding and support as we work to make up for lost instructional time.
Thank you for your cooperation!
UPCOMING CHANGES: In our ongoing commitment to keeping students and staff safe, the Irwin County School District will implement a CLEAR or MESH bag policy starting the first day of the upcoming school year.
We understand that students involved in sports, band, and other extracurricular activities may need to bring items like bat bags, instrument cases, or overnight bags. Procedures will be in place to ensure these items are properly checked or securely stored during the school day.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work together to prioritize safety on our campuses.
