JCHS PTSA Update - March 21, 2023

Weekly Newsletter - March 21, 2023


Looking for Volunteers for the
Honor Roll Celebration!

 

PTSA is currently looking for 8 parents per shift to help with our Spring Honor Roll Recognition event on Wednesday, March 29th, when we will deliver about 1100 snacks to about 1100 students over three lunch periods. This event is to recognize the students with a 90 and above grade point average across all subjects.

 

The first shift arrives courtyard at 10:10 AM and stays till 12pm. Please arrive at the front office by 10:05 am to check in.

The second shift is 12-1:45 pm. Please let us know if you can stay for both shifts.

 

Please email Rebecca Wang JRW1373@gmail.com to sign up.

 

As a reminder ... Fulton County requires all volunteers to watch a short video and it takes three to four days to show the approval certificate at the school side.

Please finish this ASAP if you want to volunteer for this event. https://www.fultonschools.org/Page/9539. If you got approval for the 2021-2022 school year, you have to get a new certificate for the 2022-2023 school year.

 


March Wednesday Wellness Day is This Week!

The next Wellness Wednesday Event is this Wednesday 3/22 during each lunch period.

 

“Cornhole in the Courtyard “as well as a few other outdoor activities. Come join the fun!
