Transcript Request Changes

Starting July 1st, transcript requests will be processed differently. Instead of e-SCRIP, in which you come to the school, fill out a request, and pay the processing fee, we are switching to a new process called Parchment.

With Parchment, you will visit the Parchment website (click here), pay their ordering fee, and we will send the transcript where you request for it to be sent. This link is also on our website under "Guidance."

Need a Reminder?

Dothan High's guidance counselors have created Remind accounts for each grade level. 

Just create an account on Remind.com or download the app, then use the code from your student's counselor to get important updates and reminders delivered to you throughout the school year.
