Medication Disposal Drive

We are hosting our Medication Disposal Day in partnership with Integrated Psychiatric Services , One Johns Creek, and the Johns Creek Police Department on Tuesday, 3/10/26. This initiative aims to provide a safe, responsible way to dispose of unused and expired medications, helping to protect our families, environment, and community from the risks of improper drug disposal. STUDENTS MAY NOT DROP OFF MEDICATIONS; ONLY ADULTS MAY DO SO.

What you Can Bring

· Prescription medications (pills, tablets, capsules)

· Over-the-counter medications

· Vitamins and supplements

· Liquids and creams

What We Cannot Accept

· Needles, sharps, or syringes

· Illegal Substances

Why This Matters
 Over 90,000 drug overdose deaths were reported in the U.S. in 2020.
 15% of suicides involve drug overdoses.
 Limiting access to medications is one of the best ways to prevent

accidental and intentional overdose
 Improperly disposed medications can harm our environment

and put others at risk.

Disposing of medications properly prevents misuse and helps keep harmful substances
out of our waterways and landfills. Please join us in making a positive impact on our
community’s health and safety.

If you have any questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to reach out
to Vikram Bora ( VIkrambora2018@gmail.com, 678-756-6359) or

JCHS School Social Worker Maiko Noiri-Schoen (schoenm@fultonschools.org).

Media Center Volunteers

Also just a reminder, you are required to complete registration and training before the date of volunteering.

JCHS Needs Parent Volunteers.

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 must be scanned each time you 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.

🛑 Calling All JCHS Family Business Owners

Do you own a local business and want to give back to the Johns Creek High School community? The JCHS PTSA is currently looking for business owners interested in becoming Partners in Education.

As a Partner, you'll support valuable school programs, teacher appreciation events, and student initiatives—all while gaining visibility and appreciation from our school community.

We offer flexible partnership opportunities for businesses of all sizes. If you're interested in joining or learning more, please contact Carol Muro at carol.muro@gmail.com.

Let's work together to strengthen our school and community.
