COVID REPORTING PORTAL
As students in Fulton County Schools (FCS) have begun returning to face-to-face instruction, a number of changes were implemented to ensure the health and safety of students, staff, and visitors. Among the most vital of these changes is the development and introduction of a new electronic FCS COVID-19 Reporting Portal for parents (and students). This electronic reporting process will allow for a more direct reaction from primarily the Fulton County Board of Health (FCBOH) with support from FCS to promptly respond and address student/family cases of COVID-19.

COUNSELING DEPT. APPOINTMENTS
The MHS Counseling Department is very excited to announce that we are now scheduling student appointments online through Microsoft Bookings. As always, if a student is in crisis or it is an emergency, they do not need to schedule an appointment in advance. For visits that can be planned (e.g. college planning, trouble in class, non-emergent personal issue), students can make an appointment with us easily through their phone or other personal device. Here are the steps:
- Go our NEW website at: www.bit.ly/miltoncounseling
- Select the red appointment button
- Select the type of appointment
- Select their counselor's name
- Select preferred date/time
- Complete form with name, e-mail, phone number, and goal for appointment
- Click "Book"
- Student will receive e-mail/text confirmation, as well as a reminder 1 hour before their appointment (this is their pass from class). A Teams link will be included in the confirmation, but a student can meet face-to-face if they'd like to. Student will not be called from class; they can arrive just like they would at a doctor's appointment.
