Orientation Schedule for Students Coming to Campus the First Time


With such a large percentage of students already on campus, we are finding less need for weekly orientation sessions. As such, we ask families to be aware of the upcoming orientation options in February, March and April should they wish for their student to return to campus and alert the high school office at least 48 hours in advance of the chosen orientation. 


All orientations will take place from 8:15 - 8:55 am in the Madras Hall. Students should arrive on campus between 8:00 - 8:15 am.

Second Semester Student to Teacher Feedback Survey


Each semester we ask students to complete a feedback survey for each of their teachers. A week to ten days after the survey concludes, teachers will share, in broad strokes, identified strengths and areas of growth with their students. The high school administration reviews all data and comments and calculates satisfaction averages for the section. Those averages will be shared in the Principals Notes.


The schedule for the survey is as follows:


Monday, March 1

Block 1 answers for block 2 teacher

Block 2 answers for block 3 teacher

Block 3 answers for block 4 teacher

Block 4 answers for block 1 teacher


Tuesday, March 2

Block 5 answers for block 6 teacher

Block 6 answers for block 7 teacher

Block 7 answers for block 8 teacher

Block 8 answers for block 5 teacher


As always, we ask students to give honest feedback and constructive comments.
