School Starts Thursday, September 4, 2014

The first day of classes for all students is Thursday, September 4, 2014. So please be on time and ready to get started.

There's no escaping the fact that the first day of school can be crazy. Your first day is also the time to bring in school supplies and paperwork. It can help to pack your backpack the night before school starts so you're not scrambling around at the last minute looking for what you need. In addition to packing basic supplies (such as notebooks, pens, and pencils), hunt down any of the school forms that were mailed to your family over the summer: immunization (shot) records, permission slips, and Emergency BLUE CARD.

You'll meet your new teachers, and they'll probably give you an overview of the course syllabus, class rules, what the semester will be like, what supplies you'll need, and expectations of your performance and behavior. Some teachers will jump right into their first lesson, while others may have non-coursework activities planned. It all depends on the class and teacher.
