SHIPPING INFO:
Be aware that no production will begin until the buying window has closed. Once the window is closed, orders will be processed, all items will be printed, then shipped. ALL ORDERS will be shipped to Louisville Male High School. Once we have received them, we will alert families of pick up dates available for you to come pick up your merchandise at school. THIS PICK UP DAY WILL MIRROR CHROMEBOOK HANDOUT/TEXT BOOK PICK UP. We will provide clear instructions on how and when you may pick you your items when the time comes.
Once we return to school, in person, the Campus Bookstore will be open regular hours (11:00 am – 12:30 pm), each school day. Please remember, items purchased through the online platforms cannot be returned or exchanged for other Bookstore items once school returns. If you have questions, please reach out to Mr. Fiorella (Jacob.Fiorella@jefferson.kyschools.us).
Thank you so much for your support—GO BULLDOGS!
A Few Reminders:
REMINDER: Please update ALL contact information!!
Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS) is urging families to verify that their contact information is up-to-date, and that they are registered to receive text messages from JCPS as the district prepares for the start of Non-Traditional Instruction (NTI).
Up-to-date email addresses and phone numbers will be important for families who need to request a Chromebook and/or hotspot for the upcoming school year. Communication from a student’s school and teachers also requires a valid email or phone number.
With job changes and work from home scenarios, existing email addresses may no longer be valid and need updating. For families currently receiving district and school emails and text messages, no action is needed at this time.
To ensure parents and guardians are receiving information from JCPS, they are encouraged to take the following steps:
To make sure you receive text messages, simply opt in to School Messenger by texting Y to 67587. You MUST opt in to this system to receive text messages. Even if JCPS has your correct phone number on file, you won’t receive text messages if you haven’t opted in to School Messenger.
To receive emails from the district and your child’s school, you must have your current email address in our JCPS system. Information can be updated in the Parent Portal. If you do not have a Parent Portal login, you can set up an account here.
If you have an existing account, go to Parent Portal and click “Log on to the Parent Portal.”
- Choose Campus Parent
- Enter log in credentials (user name and password)
- Click More
- Click Family Information
- Click Update (correct your information then click ‘Update’ again)
Families who have previously “unsubscribed” to emails from JCPS, or reported the emails as spam, will not receive future emails.
JCPS’ first day is scheduled for August 25th.
Follow JCPS online on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube.

For ANY LMHS Student Needing a Chromebook or Wi-Fi Hotspot:
CHROMEBOOK REQUESTS
Beginning Monday, August 10 at 9:00 a.m., families can request a device or an internet hotspot by visiting the JCPS website and filling out a request form. Families will need to put in their email address or phone number that matches district records, and answer a few questions. Also starting Monday, families without internet access and the ability to submit an online request form can contact their child’s school or the JCPS call center at 313-HELP (4357). Individual schools will notify families within a couple of weeks if their Chromebook or Wi-Fi hotspot request is approved and handle distribution of the devices.
