Bulldog Training Camp
July 2, 2026, from 9:00- 11:00 AM
Bulldog Training Camp is our 6th Grade Orientation designed to help incoming students feel confident and ready for middle school! During this event, students will walk their schedules, locate classrooms, and practice navigating the building. While students are participating, parents and guardians are invited to attend informational sessions to learn more about school expectations, supports, and resources. This is a great opportunity for students and families to ask questions, ease nerves, and start the school year feeling prepared. We look forward to welcoming our newest Bulldogs! 🐾
