JH Fundraiser Review
The SJH PTO and Administration have been actively considering the best option for our annual fundraising event at the Junior High. The PTO uses the funds raised at this event to support athletics, clubs, and student activities throughout the year.
Flight Fest has been our community-wide event for the past decade, but due to declining interest and cost efficiencies, we have been exploring other options. The recent Fun-A-Thon was a pilot event to test if we could successfully hold a pledge-a-thon event and garner more interest from students, parents, and the community. The event was deemed a success in terms of the money raised and participation. A committee of parents, administrators and teachers has made the decision to replace Flight Fest with the Fun-A-Thon starting this fall.
If you have feedback regarding the change, please let us know through an email to NamakyR@sycamoreschools.org.
Thank you for your continued support!
School Supply Lists
As you start shopping for supplies for next year, please refer to our GENERAL SUPPLY LIST and TEACHER-SPECIFIC SUPPLY LIST. Ohio's Tax-Free weekend will be August 5-7, 2022.
Junior high students are allowed to carry backpacks. Because our hallways are small and space is restricted, we ask that you send your child with a modest-sized backpack. To help in this effort, our teachers have worked to limit the supplies that the students will need for each class.
Students will be able to access lockers three times a day to retrieve items for morning and afternoon classes:
Before school
In the middle of the school day - 7th grade between 3rd and 4th bells and 8th grade between 4th and 5th bells
After school
Moving out of the District??
As we plan for the next school year, it is important we have a count of pupils attending school at Sycamore Junior High School. If you know that your child will be moving out of Sycamore Community School District or will be attending a private or parochial school next fall. The State of Ohio requires a parent/guardian to fill-out and sign a Student Withdrawal form and return to the Sycamore Junior High School by May 20, 2022. After this form is complete please email to manningt@sycamoreschools.org This is important for transferring school records. For this form, please click on the following link:
