The staff at Jamison High School (JHS) understand the importance of parent involvement for the success of a child's educations. Please feel free to use this website to involve yourself as much as possible in JHS and its activities.
Parent Portal: Parent Portal is designed to help parents to be able to monitor their student's progress in school.

Student/Parent/Teacher Conferences: JHS holds Student/Parent/Teacher Conferences after each trimester (12-week grading period). Appointments are made with individual teachers for each parent or guardian and their student. At these meetings, student progress toward graduation is discussed along with clarification about transcripts, attendance, etc. Therefore these conferences are very important.

This will allow you to monitor the time your student is spending on the online platform as well as their progress.
