Introducing the jmc Family app! Get real-time student information on the go, just a few taps away. Read classroom news during the board meeting. Check your meal balance during the soccer match. Or, schedule your son’s absence for next week when he is at space camp. The options are limitless!

There are four main parts of the app to navigate:

Dashboard

The central hub of all student activity. See eight different types of alerts in one spot to stay better informed of important information including grade alerts, school news, today's activity events, low lunch balance, and menu changes.

  • View information for all kiddos at once, or trim down your feed by filtering for a single child.

  • Student-specific information tied to the kiddos of your family, including your child's photo avatar for quick identification.

Academics

See a bird’s-eye view of your student’s academic world, including GPA, class schedule, upcoming assignments, teachers, and grades.

  • Read updates on classes and activities in the news feed.

  • Virtually meet all of your kiddo's teachers by viewing their photos and email addresses.

  • Get up to the minute information on your kiddos' classroom successes by viewing their progress reports.

Activities

Juggling activities is now a snap in jmc's Family app! See a full calendar of all your kiddo's extracurricular events with dates, times, and locations.

  • The event's location is clickable to open in your device's mapping app to help get you there right in time for kick-off or opening curtain.

  • Lost? Need further assistance, click the phone number to place a call directly from the app.

Attendance Hotline

Reporting & tracking absences is as easy as 1-2-3! Stay in the know about your kiddo’s past absences and tardies while reporting upcoming ones in the Attendance Hotline. That's right folks, this now eliminates the hassle of trying to find the school phone number and leaving a message. Yay!

  • See a complete record of your student's past absences.

  • Schedule absences for upcoming trips and medical appointments.

Hamburger Menu

Families have easy access to school information, from making a lunch deposit to finding the school’s phone number. It’s all at your fingertips.

  • Access a variety of information about the school including the address, phone number, a map, bell schedule, and the school year calendar.

  • View meal accounts balances and deposit funds directly from the app.

  • Customize push and email notifications for low meal account balances, student tardies and absences, and missing or late scores.

  • Access a list of frequently visited sites recommended by your school.
