Dear Eighth Grade Parent/Guardian,
This is an important decision making year for you and your eighth grade student. This school year, information will be presented regarding the courses and programs available at Rutherford High School. Every eighth grade student will meet with their High School Counselor at Rutherford High School during a visit to the High School scheduled during the school day.
If you would like to explore high school options other than Rutherford High School, below is important information to help you with the process.
I look forward to working with you and your child in planning a challenging and rewarding high school experience.
Sincerely,
Elana Liebeskind, School Counselor
