New Student Orientation

Orientation is required for all new Precollege students. Attending the orientation is an opportunity for families and students to connect with our staff and learn more about program requirements. While returning students are not required to attend, they are encouraged to join us. All students will receive a "Get Ready" email with a checklist of items needed for the first day of class. We look forward to meeting you!
