The incoming freshmen, along with their families, attended a recent ninth-grade orientation night to become more acquainted with the high school as they practiced locker combinations, navigated the hallways through their schedules, learned about the importance of high school credits and reviewed all of the great opportunities the high school has to offer.

Principal Ryan Lanigan greeted a crowd in the auditorium before he explained pertinent information, including the revamped Freshman Seminar curriculum each ninth grader will take.

Through that class alone, students will enhance writing skills, set literacy goals, improve digital literacy, begin career exploration and improve research skills; all to prepare the freshmen to be life-ready.
