Teachers don't just teach the students of JCPS, they inspire, motivate, mentor, and coach them. Our teachers pour their hearts and souls into their students each and every day. Teaching is a calling, and we are forever grateful to those who have answered that call, and have chosen JCPS to fulfill their purpose!
THANK YOU TEACHERS!!!💝👏

Good Evening Pirate Seniors!
In North Carolina, Seniors are required to have proof of their Meningococcal booster in the first month of school. Our nurse has been working hard to verify records and sent an email to families with a missing record.
Documentation of 12th grade vaccinations must be received by September 26th, 2023. Johnston County Health Department will be doing two clinics for school vaccines. If you received an email from Nurse Franklin, your child is deficient with these vaccines. You can find information on the flyer she included in the email.
If your received an email from Nurse Franklin and your child has received these vaccines, please provide documentation. You can hand deliver the proof of vaccine to the schools main office, mail them to the school or email them directly to Ms. Franklin. You could also request the pediatrician to fax it to the school. Make sure to address attention to the school nurse if hand delivering, mailing or faxing.
If you did not receive an email from Nurse Franklin in the last week, and you are a returning student, she likely has all your information.
Thank you and have a great evening!
