Schedule Pickup and Orientation FAQs:

Frequently Asked Questions about the upcoming Schedule Pickup and Orientation on 
August 12th and 13th
  1. Who from my family needs to come to Schedule Pickup and Orientation?
    • All students and parents are invited to come to Schedule Pickup. Orientation is for the 7th grade students and their parents, and for students and parents who are new to the district.
  2. What if a parent or student is unable to attend Schedule Pickup or Orientation?
    • As long as all forms have been completed by both the parent and the student in Final Forms prior to the Schedule Pickup date, either the student or parent can pickup the schedule. The device pickup requires a STUDENT signature so the student must be present in order to get their device.
  3. Is there a specific assigned time that my student should come to Schedule Pickup?
    • NO. There are no assigned times for Schedule Pickup. Any student and parent is allowed to come throughout the time frame of the event. Many 7th graders choose to come on August 12th between 5 and 6pm so that they can go to Orientation right after. 
  4. Do I need to bring cash or a check to Schedule Pickup?

    • All fees including those for school pictures can be paid online either through the Parent Portal (for school fees) or through mylifetouch.com (for school pictures- use code JC815552Q0). If you do not want to pay online for any of these fees, we will be accepting cash and check payments at Schedule Pickup and will have paper forms provided for you.
  5. What if I do not have a Parent Portal Login?

      • Parent Portal is an important place to visit for Parents. This is where your fees are paid, lunch accounts can be managed, and there are links to all important sites such as Final Forms and this Blog. To get a Parent Portal Login CLICK HERE
  6. What happens if my student was unable to get their Tdap prior to Schedule Pickup?
    • All Junior High Students are required to have a Tdap prior to getting their schedule and device. Many students were able to get these through our elementary schools last spring. If you did not get your Tdap through Sycamore Schools, you will need to bring documentation from your doctor that you have filled this requirement in order to get your schedule or device. We can't release a student's schedule or device to them before they have a Tdap.
