Transcript Requests and Attendance Verifications
Need a copy of your transcript, an education verification, and/or attendance verification (ex. for military purposes, Social Security benefits, insurance purposes, etc.) completed? Then please send your transcript request to phstranscripts@pickenscountyschools.org. For all transcript requests please include the following information:
Your first and last name (please provide your maiden name when necessary).
The year you graduated. If you are currently a PHS student, then please identify what grade you are in.
Your date of birth (Month/Day/Year).
The last 4 digits of your social security number (SSN).
Where you need your transcript to be sent to.
The counseling secretary will process your request within 72 hrs. If you would like to pick the transcript up in person or have it emailed to yourself, then please indicate so in your transcript request email. For previously graduated PHS students, the cost for a transcript request to be processed is $5.00. Please know that "official transcripts" will show your 100 point scale weighted and unweighted GPA's. If you would like to see your 4.0 scale GPA, then you will need to request an "unofficial" copy of your transcript.
Please remember that your HOPE GPA is calculated by GA Futures, not by PHS; thus, to view your HOPE GPA, then you will need access your GA Futures account.
Official transcripts reflecting final Fall semester grades will be available on February 16th. At that time, students can check their updated HOPE GPA in GA Futures.
Official transcripts reflecting final Spring semester grades will be available for release on July 1st. At that time, students can check their updated HOPE GPA in GA Futures.
Attendance and Records Assistance
Sick/Doctor's Notes
If you are out of school for any reason, then please bring a doctor's note or sick note to the front desk. Doctor's notes and/or sick notes are not accepted after five days of returning to school. You can also email your sick note or doctor's note to phsattendance@pickenscountyschools.org
Records Requests
If you need to request records and/or update your information in Infinite Campus (such as phone numbers, addresses, email addresses, etc.), then please contact the PHS Registrar, Ms. Candy DiPrima. Her email address is candydiprima@pickenscountyschools.org
Accessing an Unofficial Transcript in IC as a Student
Many students need access to their unofficial transcript to check their class rank, weighted and unweighted GPA's, GPA's on both a 100 point scale and 4.0 scale, etc. Click HERE to access the directions on how a student can view his/her unofficial transcript in his/her IC account.
Enrolling a Student to Attend PHS
If you want to enroll your student to attend PHS, then please first complete registration and enrollment via the Registration Department at the PCSD Central Office. Access the PCSD Registration webpage here.
Once you have completed registration, then our school will be notified and you will be contacted by the counseling secretary about setting up a new student appointment with your PHS Counselor.
Please know that you will have to first complete the registration process, registration notifies PHS once it is complete and they have processed your application, and PHS will have to receive a copy of the student's records before we will schedule a new student meeting.
Withdrawing a Student from PHS
If your student will be leaving PHS to transfer to another school, then you will need to reach out to our registrar, Ms. Candy DiPrima, to withdraw your student. You will need to do the following:
Set up an appointment with the registrar, Ms. DiPrima, to withdraw your student by either coming in person, calling PHS at 706-253-1800, or by emailing her at candydiprima@pickenscountyschools.org
Come in to withdraw your student, sign the appropriate paperwork, and turn in your student's chromebook, charger, and case.
Before you leave from your student withdrawal appointment, the registrar will give you a document that contains your student's transfer grades (if student moves within the semester and does not complete the semester with PHS) or a copy of the student's final transcript if the student finished the semester at PHS and earned his/her credits. Please know that final grades will not be available on transcripts until report cards go out (which is typically a week into each new semester. Ex. 1st week of January and 1st week of June).
ADAP Test and Attendance Certificates for Licenses
If you need a copy of your attendance verification and/or your ADAP report for your learners or drivers licenses, then please email your request to:
phsattendance@pickenscountyschools.org
Once your request has been processed, then the student and/or parent can pick up the items from the PHS Front Office Secretary.
For the 2024-25 school year the ADAP presentation and test were given on 10/9/24 to all 9th grade students. If you were not at PHS on 10/9/24, then you missed both the presentation and test. The ADAP (Alcohol and Drug Awareness Program) is a requirement in Georgia for anyone under the age of 18 to complete in order to obtain his/her drivers license. The presentation and test are given only once each school year at PHS and for the 2024-25 school year, the presentation and test were given on 10/9/24.
Click HERE to register for the eADAP (electronic version of the ADAP) if you missed the test last year. When registering for the eADAP, under "reason for enrollment" you will need to choose "other" and you will also need to use a personal email account instead of your student Gmail email address. Click HERE to access the eADAP instructions from the GA DDS.
The ADAP presentation and test will be administered to all 9th grades students at PHS again in October of 2025.
