Dear Families of Rising Freshmen,
It won't be long before your 8th grader transitions to the high school. This is a important step and we are excited to invite your rising freshman to join the high school for one of the sessions of Freshman Kick-off being offered on July 26, July 27, July 31 and August 1. Sessions are offered from 9:00-11:00am and from 12:30-2:30pm each day. You can sign up for your preferred day and time here. Please be aware that some fall sports tryouts occur in early August, so if your student will be trying out for a high school fall sport, please consult the website prior to selecting your Freshman Kick-off session to avoid any conflict.
Freshman Kick-off is designed to help our rising 9th graders familiarize themselves with the high school prior to their first day of school. Your student will meet some of the high school staff, receive a short introductory course on the new laptop, get a refresher on Schoology and how it applies in high school and take home his or her new laptop, provided the $125 tech co-pay is paid (the link to pay will be made available after July 1). We will also host a fun scavenger hunt so freshmen can become familiar with their new school building.
Freshman Kick-off is for students only. Parents will drop their child off at the start of their session and pick them up two hours later when the session is over. Your student is highly encouraged to attend Freshman Kick-off; prior year's freshmen have told us it was very helpful in preparing them for success in high school.
