Additionally, our BAC & PAC invite all families to a Parent Cookie Exchange on Thursday, December 18th at 9:15 AM in Room 204. 🍪
Bring 2 dozen sweet treats to share, and leave with 2 dozen new goodies—a perfect way to celebrate community and connection this season!

To volunteer at Jungman, you need clearance, EVERY SCHOOL YEAR, from Chicago Public Schools! This requires a few steps!

1. Login/Create an account online
2. Bring your photo ID to the office or email it to Ms. Jessica at jmoreno83@cps.edu
3. WATCH for an email from CPS that has a video you need to watch. When you complete the video, you download and send a copy of the certificate to volunteer@cps.edu

If you don't follow these steps, you will not be approved! This is not a Jungman policy, this is a District Policy!
