Step 3: Tour your new school!
Once the enrollment process is complete, you can schedule a time to tour your new school and meet your principal and teachers.
For students attending Joplin High School/Franklin Technology Center, once your official transcripts have been received at the high school, a counselor will call you to schedule a time to visit the high school, register for classes, and complete the enrollment process. It generally takes two or three business days to receive transcripts.
