Transcript Requests

 
IMPORTANT UPDATE : Please email all alumni transcript requests directly to Guy Jorstad -- [email protected] -- (908) 852-8150 x2233 (phone).
 
The High School Transcript is the record of a student's academic accomplishments in grades 9 through 12.  It records every course taken, grade received and credits earned.  Additionally, a GPA (grade point average) is calculated.  
  • Official transcripts are sent electronically to a college or mailed in a sealed, stamped envelope.  Official, sealed transcripts can be given directly to a student.  However, if you are delivering an official transcript then you cannot open the envelope.
  • Unofficial transcripts can be printed or given directly to students but will generally not be accepted by colleges or employers.
 
Parents and students can view their transcript at any time (before graduating) on the Student/Parent Portal under Grades by selecting View Transcript.  
 
Graduates must request a transcript from the High School Guidance office.
 
 
Seniors must complete a release of records form to grant the guidance department permission to release transcript information to a college, athletic department, military recruiter or other organization.  That form will be provided during your senior meeting.
 
When applying to colleges, current students will use Naviance to indicate which colleges are to receive their transcript.
 
All graduates are required to complete the Senior Survey in order to participate in graduation activities.  On this Senior Survey students will indicate which college they are attending in the fall. 
 
Final transcripts will automatically be sent to those colleges.  Transcripts are sent electronically or mailed in the first week after graduation.  
 
Special note:  Hackettstown Public Schools does not retain a copy of the student's diploma.  The diploma should be kept with other important records in a safe place where it can be accessed in the future.  Once lost, it cannot be replaced.
