On Campus Orientation
Our On Campus Orientation will be on Wednesday, 8/23, starting at 9:00 am. We'll get started with a whole school message at our lunch tables, welcome the students back with the new theme for this year, and break off into sessions with the teachers. Teachers will hold two separate sessions back to back in case you have multiple students with different teachers. We'll also have LiveScan on campus to complete fingerprinting for anybody planning to volunteer on campus (Note: if you've completed LiveScan fingerprinting in the past, you do not need to complete it again). The Placer County Library will also be on hand to allow you to sign up your students for library cards (You can print this application and bring it in with you to save time). Also, be sure to stop by the PTO booth to see how you can get involved in different efforts to help out the school!
Home Study Orientation
Our Home Study Orientation will be on Wednesday, 8/23 at 1:00 pm. Orientation will be held on Zoom (Zoom link here) and will cover learning period meetings, paperwork requirements, field trip and enrichment information, and much more!
