School Supply Lists

Parent Information Night

P.E. Uniforms

Examples of uniform sizing will be available during the Meet the Teacher event on August 6, 2026. PE uniforms will not be distributed until the second week of school.

Attendance

We are excited to introduce ParentSquare as a new way for parents to report student absences. Parents can even upload documentation such as doctor’s notes, appointment confirmations, or other related forms.
This change is intended to make it easier and more convenient for families to submit the information needed when a student is absent.
Once documentation is submitted through ParentSquare, it will be printed and then securely deleted by our Attendance Clerks after it has been processed.

If a student is unable to attend school, upon returning, the parent/guardian must complete an online attendance form, BELOW, or submit a note within 48 hours stating the date of the absence, the specific reason for the absence, and have the parent/guardian’s signature. Emails and phone calls are not accepted as notification of absence.

Reporting Bullying

St. Johns County School District believes that all students and employees be afforded a setting that is safe, secure, and free from bullying and harassment of any kind. In compliance with Florida Statute 1006.147 and School Board Rule 3.21, the school district has adopted a comprehensive policy prohibiting bullying and harassment.

If you are a person with a disability who needs assistance, please contact Matt Hodges at (904) 547-7880

FortifyFL

FortifyFL is a mobile app and web-based tool that allows students, parents, and community members in Florida to anonymously report suspicious activities, potential threats, or safety concerns related to schools. The app immediately forwards these reports to appropriate law enforcement agencies and school officials for rapid response.

School Access

School access (proceeding past the front office of any school) is required for every individual that is not a staff member of the St. Johns County School District. This is done through completion of the district’s volunteer application. School access is good for 3 years. For help completing the online application, please contact the Volunteer Services Department.
