Dear Jasper Families,

I hope you are enjoying your summer and spending quality time with your family. We are excited to welcome you back to campus for the 2021-2022 school year! Jasper is an excellent school for our 9th and 10th grade students.  We encourage all families to join Jasper PTSA to help support the outstanding staff at Jasper. Your support, through donations of time and money, will ensure that we continue to provide all of our children with a wonderful learning experience. 

 All Jasper/PISD forms can be submitted online via the PISD parent portal starting July 21, 2021. Jasper will send out a communication when your child’s schedule will be available online for those who have completed the required forms . Also, make sure you sign up for Jasper eNews. This is a quick and easy way to get up to date information regarding Jasper HS and PTSA events and notices.

If you would like to volunteer at the school this year, please note that all volunteers must complete the PISD Volunteer Application in advance each year and be approved to volunteer at the school. It is best to start your application now as it takes a few days to process.

Jasper PTSA can be found online at www.JasperPTSA.org. Sign up for membership as well as prepay for school supplies, recommended reading and more.  Order by the appropriate deadline, then your items will be reserved for you to pick up at the Jag Walkabout event on Monday, August 9 from 8:30am – 11:30am . **You MUST pick up your prepaid items. We do NOT deliver them to your child’s class. Please make arrangements to have a friend pick up any prepaid items if you are unable to make it for Jag Walkabout.** All school supplies, recommended reading, and spirit wear should be purchased online. Look for updates at www.JasperPTSA.org and follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

We love our volunteers at Jasper. If you are unable to give of your time, there are many other ways you can contribute to the PTSA, such as the following:

• Join Jasper PTSA, and encourage your friends to join the PTSA; our goal is a voice for every child at Jasper. Students are able to join the PTSA, and if they join in 9^th and 10^th Grade, this makes them eligible for the Jasper PTSA Scholarship their senior year.
• Make a monetary donation, as Jasper PTSA does not hold traditional fundraisers.
• Drop off clean, unwanted clothing or toys at the World Wear Project bin in our parking lot.
• If you shop at Amazon, sign up for Amazon Smile, where they donate 0.5% of eligible purchases to Jasper High School PTSA.

We are truly fortunate to live in a community where parents are actively involved in their children’s education, and it is important to continue being involved during high school. The Jasper PTSA is dedicated to supporting both our students and staff by fulfilling teacher wish lists, bringing in speakers to our PTSA meetings, and providing funding for programs that benefit all students. Please join us in our pursuit of excellence by joining the PTSA and being a part of the largest children’s advocacy association in the country.

Best regards,

Jennifer Nicholson
