• We are thrilled to inform you that the planning process for freshmen year is well underway! One of the first ways your child can get involved in this exciting process is by selecting their classes for the next year. This is a crucial step that allows them to tailor their academic journey and explore their interests.

     

    We understand that this may be a new experience for both you and your child, so we want to provide all guidance and support necessary to make informed decisions. Our dedicated team of counselors will meet with each student individually to review their course selection for next year and discuss the transition to high school.
