💻 Online: Visit jcps.ethicspoint.com or click the red ❗️ icon at the top of any JCPS webpage. Forms translate directly into our top non-English languages!
📞 Phone: Call 888-393-6780 to submit a tip over the phone with additional language support.

No need to get out of your car! Just drive through during morning drop-off and grab some breakfast goodies, sweet treats, and FREE math and literacy resources to help your student succeed!
