We’re providing a Virtual Orientation experience for students and their parents. The Virtual Orientation experience is designed to provide students the opportunity to learn more about the school, become familiar with extracurricular activities available, select courses for the upcoming school year, and help ease concerns as the student transitions into the next grade. We created videos providing a glimpse into the halls of our buildings and introducing staff. Administrators and school counselors led two Live Google Meets introducing students to the school and explaining the Virtual Orientation process. Teachers create videos to introduce their teams and explain their courses and any prerequisites. Students were asked to provide video clips for a “Things I Wish I Knew Before…” We created a middle and high school version.School counselors hosted Google Meets for each grade level to discuss the Program of Studies and the virtual course registration process. The Virtual Course Selection website was updated with resources to encourage student involvement. This includes a list of clubs and sports as well as contact information for sponsors and coaches.
