Class Schedules
Class Schedules
Please make sure to check Infinite Campus for your most up to date schedule.
If you see a mistake in your schedule please email your counselor immediately so we can make the appropriate adjustments.
We do our best to match your schedule base on your course requests but we do sometimes have to give you your alternate classes. Changing classes after school starts may not be an option due to many of our classes being full.
We do not take teacher, or team change requests, and also moving classes to a different period is often not possible due to the class sizes.
Paying for School Meals
Paying for School Meals
Breakfast is served before school and at break.
7th and 8th grade students will eat lunch together after 4th period. There's usually increased variety and options compare to elementary schools.
You are welcome to go to the cafeteria and bring your own packed lunch.
Easiest way to pay for lunch is through My SchoolBucks, please set this up right before school starts.
For more information on our meal services and payment options please visit our Food and Nutrition Services Site. If you need help paying for lunch, you visit our page to see if your child qualify for free and reduced meals.

Students will receive a school ID from the main office on their first day of school. Make sure you stop by the main office to have your picture taken.
All students will receive a District Chromebook that they are expected to bring to school everyday. You might not be able to access specific classroom materials if you use your own device.
Please let our staff know if your school device is damaged, not working properly, missing a charger or if you lost it entirely.
Please remember to renew the theft/damage protection on your device every year in IC. You can purchase damage protection in our North JH Store.
Our school counseling department is offering a variety of groups this year. Please let me know if you think your child will benefit from joining one of our groups by filling out this form.
Signing up does not guarantee a spot in the group, it also does not mean that they are committed to joining the group. Some of our groups will have limited capacity and we will prioritize base on student needs.
