Summer Information Fair

Johnston County Public Schools (JCPS) will hold its third annual Summer Information Fair for families on Monday, July 29 and Tuesday, July 30, 2024.

In preparation for the 2024-2025 school year, JCPS Transportation Services, School Nutrition, Communication, and Student Information will host a Summer Information Fair at schools throughout the Johnston County community. The information fair will provide parents an opportunity to enroll their student, and request, verify, and ensure your child has bus transportation, and receive pertinent back to school information from school nutrition and communication services.

The summer information fairs will be held on July 29 and July 30 from 1:00 - 7:00 PM. Please see below for dates and locations.

Families are invited to attend the Summer Information Fair at the school and date that is most convenient for their schedule and are not required to attend the fair in their student’s feeder pattern.

Transportation Services:

Students that are assigned to a bus as of the last day of school do not need to attend this event. Students with a bus assignment on the last day of the 2023-2024 school year will continue to receive bus transportation for next school year. Transportation Services is encouraging all families to visit a summer information session if you have moved to a different address, if you are newly enrolled to the school district, or if your child did not ride a bus during the 2023-2024 school year and bus transportation is desired for next school year. Also, we highly recommend any student who no longer needs transportation to attend the information fair to share this change in their transportation needs.

Families that are unable to attend this event will need to contact their school data manager or school administrator to request transportation. All eligible applicants are assured to have transportation services on the first day of school for the 2024-2025 school year. Students' bus assignment information will be distributed by the school during your child’s open house event. Bus assignment information will also be available in Infinite Campus as well as the Edulog Parent Portal.

While students won’t receive their bus number at the Information Fair, attending and signing up for transportation guarantees that the student will have transportation on the first day of school. Bus information is expected to be shared at Orientation.

School Nutrition Services:

All students at every school in the JCPS district will receive a healthy breakfast and lunch at no cost to the household this upcoming school year through the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP).

The overall purpose of the CEP is to improve access to nutritious meals for students in high-poverty areas by providing meals to all students “at no cost” to the household without requiring families to apply for meal benefits.

Members of the School Nutrition staff will be on hand at the Summer Information Fair to distribute meal IDs to enrolled students, assist with mobile meal apps, ensure unique meal needs are received, and share employment opportunities.

Enrollment:

Student Information staff will be on hand to assist families to enroll students for the upcoming school year at the information fair. Please review the Enrollment portion of the JCPS website and bring any necessary documents to complete the enrollment process.
