A message from the JSHS Counselors for 7th and 8th grade students

This is a reminder that we will administer the ILEARN Checkpoints Practice Test on Friday, August 29.

Students will use Chromebooks to complete the checkpoints, and they may borrow a device if they usually use their own, family-owned device. Students whose daily-use device is a school-issued Chromebook are expected to bring that device to the test session each time.

All students are encouraged to bring a set of wired headphones with them.

West Lafayette Community School Corporation families, your voice matters! We need to hear what is working for you and what you need. This year we will send routine text messages and emails, known as "Pulse Checks", with a few simple questions asking for feedback on your experience with our schools. WLCSC families will receive these messages from Possip, an organization we have partnered with to learn your needs. Families will receive a survey from each school that they have a student attending. In February, these surveys will come at the same time and then they will be staggered in March depending on the school. Learn more about how Possip works here: https://youtu.be/P5Zcy4an3qM
