My first day of school…

1.Enter JHS at about 8:15 am.

2. If you are getting breakfast, go IMMEDIATELY to the commons to get it.

3. Go to your locker and drop off any items that you don’t need for class.

4. Get to your 1st period class by 8:25 so that you are ready to start class.

So, how do I get around?

▪ The Freshman Academy Office is located on the 3rd floor in the GREEN hallway.

▪ MOST freshmen classes are on the 3rd floor.

▪ MOST freshman lockers are on the 3rd floor – some are on the 1st floor grouped together.
