FOR STUDENTS

Advisory/Homeroom

One of our goals is to personalize each student's educational experience and connection to school. We strive to connect each student with an adult member of our staff in addition to the school counselor. Our students are assigned to a house office and homeroom and in most cases, remain with the same home room teacher for all four years. We ask our teachers to greet each student by name each morning. Some teachers will also offer a handshake as a way to connect with our students. We strive to keep the student to teacher ratio as low as possible by asking all of our adults to take part in homeroom activities. Periodically, our homeroom periods are extended to allow for advisory types of activities to take place.


The school’s Bell Schedule has period times for each day schedule.
