Orientations

Dear Eighth Grade Parent/Guardian,

I hope this letter finds everyone well and enjoying the spring weather.  Our second semester is underway at the high school, and we are preparing for our end-of-year events, including our 8th-grade student orientation and our 8th-grade parent orientation. 

Our orientation programs will focus on our high school schedule, what a day may look like for a student, and the various clubs and activities that are available. The parent presentation will additionally feature a panel of students and parents who will share their experiences transitioning into high school. Our panelists and administration will be available at the end of the presentation to answer questions that students or parents may have. 

  • Our 8th-grade student orientation will be held during the school day on Tuesday, May 6.  Our 8th graders will be bused to the high school in the afternoon.  They will attend a presentation in our auditorium and receive a short tour of the school.  They will return to the middle school before dismissal. 


  • Our 8th-grade parent orientation will be held on Tuesday, May 6, at 6:30  PM in the high school auditorium. The content of the orientation will be similar to what the students will experience, with the addition of the student/parent panel.  For those who can not attend, a copy of the presentation will be shared.  

Please also mark your calendars for our 9th Grade Open House, which will take place from 1-2:30 pm on Thursday, August 14th. During the open house, students will have an opportunity to tour the building with their schedules, and student leaders will be on hand to assist and answer questions.  

We hope you are able to join us for these upcoming programs, and we look forward to welcoming our CHS Class of 2029!
