Activity 2:

Preparing for a new school year, especially for the first time in a new school, can be somewhat overwhelming. Hopefully you have been able to access your schedule and go through a virtual tour of our school building to find the location of your classes and the chance to watch a short video about each of your teachers and other staff members that are connected with Cresthill!

There will be times in which you will struggle, whether it be here at school or out of school. It is crucial to know who, when, where, how to access your support people that you can connect with. Please take some time to watch this video. (While you are watching, reflect on a time in which a 'wave' knocked you down-whether at school or somewhere else and who was there to help you.)

Activity 3 : WHAT I WISH I KNEW.....

What I wish I knew when I started 7th grade. Hear some words of wisdom from a couple of our current WEB Leaders as they share their thoughts:

SCHOOL PRIDE and how it relates to CLASH OF THE COUGARS - LINK

THE GRAND FINALE! LINK

At the end of each New Beginnings, we have our first large Cougar challenge. We have all three teams come together and compete against each other. However, we had to FLIP this opportunity and placed the pressure onto the 7th grade Wellness teachers! Explorers (Ms. Hubbard), Navigators (Mrs. Jardinico), and Trekkers (Mr. Wahl) were well represented. Take a look as they represented your academic team!!
