Important Information Regarding
Guidance Office Requests
|
Greetings!
As we head into July, the guidance office is busy finalizing class schedules, room assignments and assigning locker numbers to students. This information will be sent out to families in early August. Your son or daughter's guidance counselor will be available to assist you and answer any question you may have beginning Tuesday, August 16. Contact information for your child's counselor will be included in the packet. During the summer months, if you need a work permit or a copy of your student's transcript, please contact Kelly Muhl, administrative assistant, on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 461.3740 x243, or by email. Please allow two business days from the Tuesday or Thursday that we receive your request for it to be processed. - For work permits: make sure to include a complete address, the employer information and the physician's certificate or a copy of your son or daughter's most recent sports physical.
- For transcripts: make sure to include the reason a transcript is required so that we can determine if it needs to be official or unofficial. (NOTE: CJ alumni should fill out and submit an Alumni Transcript Request Form, available at cjeagles.org. Allow two business days to process and include the fee of $3.)
As the new school year is quickly approaching, we look forward to working with each student very soon and wish everyone a wonderful summer. GO EAGLES! Charlene Wheeler, Guidance | email |
