Dear Families of New Students and Freshmen,
Every year we host welcome events to introduce new students and their families to our school. Through these events, we ease the anxieties and worries of the first day at a new school. Given the current restrictions for onsite events, we are unable at this time to deliver an in person welcome. We do not, however, want to miss the opportunity to greet and welcome new students, so we plan to welcome them remotely through a Welcome Session.
During the Welcome Session, students will learn a bit about our school and its programs, and learn some of the functionings of our systems that are relevant to our remote start of school. Students will also have an opportunity to ask questions about Mountain View, and about how school is beginning this year. Although we may not have every answer right away, student questions always drive our thinking.
To participate in our Welcome Session, please visit this SignUp Genius to select a time slot: Welcome Session Registration. Please complete the required information to register your student. Prior to the scheduled Welcome Session, your student will receive an email from their Welcome Teacher with an invite to a Zoom meeting for the Welcome Session. Sessions will be held on July 27 and 28. The session will last approximately an hour. To participate in the Zoom Welcome Session a student must have access to a device that has both video and audio capabilities. A Zoom account is not required. Registration closes before midnight on Thursday, July 23. At this time, seats are limited.
We recognize that a virtual welcome does not replace the effectiveness and value of an in person event. Once in person instruction is permitted, it is our plan to host an in person orientation. Right now, we want new students to feel welcomed into our school culture and our virtual classrooms. When we return we will welcome them home to the physical structures of our Den.
Sincerely,
Robin Meece
Associate Principal
