CLASS OF 2021 - NAVIANCENAVIANCE
We want to remind you that all students in Fulton County Schools now have access to Naviance, which can be accessed through your ClassLink account. As previously shared, schools will be using Naviance to process and submit transcripts, letters of recommendation, and other college application documents. 

IMPORTANT CHANGES to Common Application and requesting letters of recommendation:
You can now create your Common App account, but we ask that you NOT invite any teachers or counselors to write letters of recommendation through Common App.

Requesting letters of recommendation will take place in Naviance for the 2020-2021 school year.

After August 1st, you will need to match your Common App account with your Naviance account. Requesting letters of recommendation in Common App before matching your Naviance account will create errors. Therefore, please hold off on requesting recommendations until after August 1st.

To learn more, you can watch the Common App Matching video. Once you match Common App to Naviance, you will then be able to request transcripts and teacher recommendations in Naviance Student. 
These videos will help you understand this process better:
For now, we strongly encourage you, as you begin your senior year, to visit Naviance to research colleges, careers and scholarships! We hope that you will find these resources helpful. If you have any questions about Naviance Student and the college application process, please contact your assigned counselor.

MHS URL PLANURLPLAN
Greetings Milton High School Community,

The rise of COVID-19 cases in Fulton County has resulted in the decision by the Fulton County School District to start the 20-21 school year in a Remote Learning setting. The leadership at Milton High School knows that online school will not take the place of face-to-face instruction with a caring, knowledgeable, and passionate teacher, but we have developed this plan to provide the most rigorous, meaningful, and purposeful instruction to all our students.

One of the most important points for our community to understand is that the instruction for the start of the school year will not be the same as what our students experienced in the spring of 2020. Remember that, as a school, the Coronavirus pandemic required that we quickly pivot to a TeleSchool setting. Given the difficult circumstance, they did a terrific job and I am very appreciative of their phenomenal efforts.

Some differences between the spring of 2020 and Universal Remote Learning include:
  1. Our students will participate in synchronous and asynchronous instruction.
  2. Instructional days will operate on a bell schedule, similar to a normal school day at Milton High School. The bell schedule is included in this document.
  3. Attendance will be taken during all classes.
  4. Teachers will be at school and their support staff will also be in place.
  5. Grades will count.
It is important to note that the circumstances surrounding the Coronavirus and its impact on our community are shifting constantly. This means that the information contained in this document is likely to change. As it does, we will communicate new information by posting updates on our school website (www.miltonhighschool.com) and on our official social media channels.

Finally, please note that this document is solely designed to answer specific questions about the UNIVERSAL REMOTE LEARNING (URL) at Milton High School. For more general information about the District's plan for school, please consult the District's COVID-19 webpage at 

Thank you for your continued patience, understanding, feedback, ideas and support.
