Principal's Message

We hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. As we embark on another exciting academic year, we are thrilled to welcome you all back to Tooele Junior High School for the 2023-2024 school year. We extend a warm welcome to both our returning students and those who are joining us for the first time. It is a privilege to have each and every one of you as part of our school family.

At TJHS, our commitment to excellence remains unwavering. Our dedicated staff and educators have been working diligently over the summer to prepare an enriching and engaging curriculum that fosters both academic growth and personal development. We are dedicated to providing a safe, nurturing, and inclusive environment that encourages each student to reach their full potential.

We invite everyone to our Back to School Night on Tuesday August 15 from 4:00 to 6:00 PM. This will be an opportunity to meet our faculty, tour the campus, and learn more about the upcoming academic year.

Open communication and collaboration between parents, students, and school staff are crucial for the success of our students. We encourage parents to stay involved through regular meetings, parent-teacher conferences, and various school events. Classes begin on Thursday August 17, at 8:00 AM.

As we start this new school year, we are filled with enthusiasm and optimism for the journey ahead. Together, we will strive for excellence, embrace challenges, and celebrate achievements both big and small.

Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. We are excited to partner with you in the educational journey of the 2023-2024 school year. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

Have a great rest of the school year!

Attendance

To excuse a student on the app:

When parents sign up for the Skyward app, they will select a four-digit code.
Put in your four-digit code and continue to the app
Select the “hamburger button” (the triple bar or trigram symbol) on the top right.
From here you have two options, the first option (the message tab), will show you through the notification when your student was marked absent and what you need to excuse. With the attendance tab you simply submit a request.

1. Message Tab
Attendance Notification
View
Add Absent Request
OR
2. Attendance
Add Absent Request

Either of these two options will open a pop-up.
Complete the following information:
Student
Date/Time
Reason
Comment (optional – but very helpful, especially if you want to “excuse 2^nd hour”)
If you have more than one student and want this attendance request submitted for another student (maybe your family will be attending a funeral and all students need to be excused) then you can “Copy” the request and select additional students.
Submit

To submit a request from the website:

Tooeleschools.org
Click on the Families tab across the top
Click on Skyward for Parents
Log in
On the top right click student (if you only have one student you will just see your student’s name)
In the drop-down menu select the student’s name you need to excuse
Select Attendance in the menu on the left hand side
Click on the hyperlink at the top of the page “Absence Request.”
An “Add Request” pop-up block will open
Complete the following blocks:
Date/Time
Reason
Comment (optional, but once again, very helpful)
Save
Once you have “Saved” you will receive an email notification that an absence request has been submitted.
After the request has been processed, parents will receive a notification in Skyward
“(Student’s name) Absence Request has been (approved or denied)
The Absence Request submitted for (student) on (date) has been (approved or denied).
If a request is denied, a reason must be provided. It will then say “Go to your Absence Requests for further information.”
