      FYI James Island Charter High School will be collecting Chromebooks, internet devices, textbooks, library materials, and other classroom-issued supplies beginning Monday, June 1, 2020. 

      The school has scheduled the following time slots for drop off:

       

      Monday, June 1, 2020, from 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM

      Tuesday, June 2, 2020, from 9:00 AM - 3:00 PM

      Wednesday, June 3, 2020, from 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM

       

      All guests are asked to enter the school’s main entrance and follow posted signs and directions from staff members to the front atrium. We ask that everyone please stay in their vehicle as this will be a drive-thru, drop-off service only.  Any student with personal belongings in lockers will have those items brought to their vehicle by a school staff member. In the event that items are not returned, or are returned with damages, fees will be added to the students’ account in PowerSchool and you will be notified. 

      An alphabetized list of items needing to be returned was shared with students through their school email. If you or your student have questions about a specific item, please reach out to the instructor listed beside that item. 

      Students who would like to pick up their free copy of their JI Reads book will need to ask for it when they drop off materials.  We will have copies there for you! 

      Finally, please visit our school’s website as summer reading assignments are now posted!
