This session is designed to help families better understand Dual Enrollment, get accurate information, and clear up common myths or concerns about enrolling students in college courses while in high school.

Our goal is to ensure that every family feels informed and confident when making decisions about their student’s academic path. Whether you’re curious, unsure, or already considering Dual Enrollment, this is the perfect opportunity to get your questions answered.

Please join us on April 9th, from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.! We look forward to supporting you and helping guide your child’s future success.

Seniors, it is scholarship time! The PTSA Community Impact Scholarship is now accepting applications through Friday, April 10th. The Community Impact Scholarship is awarded by the Jordan PTSA to at least two graduating seniors who have made a difference in their community through service, leadership, or other contributions. Whether your community is your home, your school, or a local, state, or national organization, we encourage you to apply and tell us about the ways in which you have made an impact on those around you.

Funding can be used for any kind of postsecondary education: community college, trade or technical school, or a four-year college or university. At least one scholarship will be awarded to a first-generation college attendee. Students can submit their application online here: bit.ly/JHSScholarship2026.

If you have already submitted an application, be sure that your transcript and recommendation are submitted by April 10th. Also, be sure to check your email in case the scholarship committee needs to reach out to you with questions about your application.
