Attendance Office Volunteers Needed!

We are looking for a few volunteers to fill regular shifts in the attendance office. For more information, please email ashleydmullins@gmail.com

Volunteers:

JCHS often needs parent volunteers, so please join the PTSA!

All school volunteers will need to register to assist with working in the office, attendance office, drama department, team meals, senior treats, Wellness Wednesday, senior carnival, chaperones, etc.

Any task that will allow you to interact with students will require you to register as a volunteer.

Please follow the link to access the FCS Volunteer Registration page. Register as a Volunteer - Fulton County School System (fultonschools.org)

All visitors must remember to bring in their driver's license each time they sign in. This is non-negotiable. The license will need to be scanned each time they come to the office. It will not hold onto the information like the other system. So, if you are coming in for a parent/counseling/teacher/administrator meeting, you must remember to bring your license. It must be the physical license, digital will not suffice.

Senior Carnival

Seniors / Senior Parents - If you did not pay a Senior Activities Fee but would like a Carnival wristband you can visit the PTSA store and purchase these items a la carte! The Carnival can be paid for up to May 13 which is the date of the event. If you have already paid a Senior Activities fee these items are included in the fee so no need to purchase separately. The link to the PTSA store is:

JCHS PTSA is proud to sponsor the College and Career Commitment Board and celebrate the future commitments of our seniors. If you are a current senior and have accepted admission to a college, trade school, military branch, or career pathway, we want to hear from you.

Please use the following link to have your name posted on our board.
