Student Services
-
The mission of the JHHS Student Services Department is aligned with the District mission to help all students learn the skills, acquire the knowledge, and develop the behaviors necessary for them to reach their full potential as citizens who can meet the challenges of a changing society. The Student Services Staff work as collaborative partners with parents, teachers, administrators, and the community to promote positive self development, academic achievement, social responsibility, and life-long learning.
The Student Services Department provides guidance services and interventions which focus on meeting the academic, personal/social, and college/career needs of all students.

Counselors
Counselors assist students in their academic development and educational planning in a variety of ways including course selection, scheduling, assessing interests and abilities, and consulting with parents and teachers to see how students are progressing in their classes. Counselors also coordinate ongoing systematic activities designed to assist students individually in establishing personal goals and developing future plans.
Counselors will assist students in exploring a wide variety of post secondary options. Students will acquire the skills to investigate the world of work in relation to knowledge of self and to make informed career decisions. Counselors will also help students understand the relationship between personal qualities, education, training and the world of work. The College and Career Room offers many resources and opportunities for students to explore post secondary options.
Counselors are also available to assist students with any personal or social concerns that may be affecting their learning.

Psychologists
A school psychologist provides support to students, parents, and teachers through evaluation, consultation, and counseling. School psychologists use data to inform each of these processes. Psychologists are available to assist students with any personal or social concerns that may be affecting their learning. Individual and group counseling services are provided for students requiring additional direction. Group counseling allows the students a safe environment to explore their concerns with other students experiencing similar issues. Psychologists also make appropriate referrals to outside community agencies for students in need of additional services.

Transcript Requests
Of all the factors considered in the college application process, the high school transcript is the one that carries the most weight. Each college determines the way in which they want to receive your transcript.
Mid-Year Transcripts
-
Please watch THIS VIDEO (<10 minutes) that goes over the full procedure for determining how to find out if you need a mid-year transcript or not, as well as how to order one through Parchment.
-
Please review these written directions as well for more details.
How to Sent Your Transcript
--> REVIEW THIS CHART FOR AN EASY WAY TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO SEND YOUR TRANSCRIPTS! (One note: Illinois State DOES require a transcript if you are applying test-optional.)
--> Also, view THESE SLIDES for a quick overview of the complete transcript process.<--
Colleges require your transcript courses and grades in one of the following ways:
- If you apply via the Common App or Coalition App, your counselor will upload your official transcript into the application after you invite them by listing their (correct!) email address in the application.
- Self-Reported: Some colleges do not require an official transcript but instead require the student to enter every course and grade from their transcript into the college application. (TIP: Find your transcript in your Infinite Campus account. See below!)
- Parchment: For all other transcript requests, students will request that their transcript be sent through Parchment. This includes requests for Mid-Year/7th semester transcripts (even if initially sent another way) if required and all FINAL transcripts.
Parchment InstructionsInformation on how to create your Parchment accounts was sent to you in early September. You can refer back to this information afterward.
