On Monday morning, we will launch a new school website at a new location: jp2chs.com. Three things to know about the switch to jp2chs.com: 1. This change also impacts student Google accounts, so instead of hoodie@jp2highschool.com, he would use hoodie@jp2chs.com to log in to Google...which means this is also what you will use to log in to your MacBook (but not until Monday around 10). 2. Emails sent to @jp2highschool.com or @jp2chs.com addresses will still land in the recipient's inbox (this is already happening). 3. jp2sports.com is now a part of the main school site (no longer two separate sites) - that URL will still be active and will take users directly to the Athletic Life page on the new site. While we have done testing to ensure all goes well on Monday morning, this is technology and we all know sometimes things do not go as planned! If you run into issues after the changes are made on Monday, please let us know. That is all for now - but there's more to come! If you have any questions, please let us know! |

This is open to all students - especially new students so they can meet one another and some of our returning students. Cost is $30/person and includes: - 2 hours of bowling
- shoe rental
- unlimited soft drinks
- unlimited chicken tenders, pepperoni pizza, and french fries
- $10 arcade card (20 credits)
Space is limited so register now! If you previously registered, you do not need to re-register. If you previously registered and cannot attend on August 5th, please email mainoffice@jp2highschool.com. |

The form to submit Works of Mercy hours has moved to a Google Form and, instead of getting a digital signature from the event coordinator when completing the hours, students will upload a selfie of themselves showing them performing the works of mercy. We hope this makes it easier for students to submit their hours! |

HUDL IS NOW THE HOME FOR SPORTS TICKETING AND LIVESTREAMING Back in the spring we announced that all home events in the gym and on the baseball, softball, and turf fields will be livestreamed on Hudl. This allows student-athletes associated with those teams to study game film and have a Hudl profile where they can create highlight videos. Student-athletes who have questions about access to Hudl should contact their coach. We've expanded our partnership with Hudl to include digital ticketing and booster club passes. Go to fan.hudl.com/jp2sports to purchase tickets and watch the livestreams. FALL SPORTS SCHEDULES Fall sports games, matches, and meets are now available on the school calendar. Schedules by sport will be available on team pages when the new website goes live on Monday. TRANSITION FROM RankOne TO HEALTHY ROSTER Returning families with student-athletes are familiar with the RankOne app to upload physicals and sign all forms related to students participating in athletics. Athletic Trainer Shelbi Dawkins will now be using Healthy Roster instead of RankOne for this purpose. If you are the parent of a student-athlete (returning or new) and have not received an invitation to Healthy Roster, please email Shelbi. CONCUSSION TESTING Student-athletes are required to complete concussion baseline testing every year. If you plan to participate in any sport during the 2025-2026 school year, please sign up for one of the times below. All testing will be be held in the dining hall except on July 30th. - July 29th - 6:00 & 7:00 p.m.
- July 30th - 9:00 a.m. (upstairs in the gym)
