Jefferson High School is now using Schoology, an integrated learning management solution that provides course management, mobile learning, and support for system-wide communication. Schoology enables our students, parents and teachers to engage with learning materials and their school community from the classroom and beyond. Our goal at JHS is to continue the journey of providing our students with 21st century tools for learning. We look forward to using Schoology in all of our classrooms starting this school year to enhance connectivity and communication across our school and district.
With Schoology, students can digitally submit homework assignments, review grades, participate in interactive discussions, receive announcements and feedback, take tests, write academic blogs, and more. As a parent, you will be able to view your child’s activity within the platform.
We value your participation in your child’s education, and we encourage you to read Schoology’s Privacy Policy & Terms of Use at www.schoology.com/privacy. Students will receive their login credentials for their teachers. Student progress and activity will be monitored by faculty to ensure a safe, secure, and controlled environment.

How does my account differ from my student's?
Students use their school username and password to log onto Schoology via Microsoft's Office 365. They are able to contribute to classroom discussions, download textbooks, and take tests. Parents and guardians can view most of these items, but cannot download textbooks, take quizzes or join classroom conversations with students.
