High School Planning Night for 8th Graders
2007-2008 School Year

Each high school hosts a High School Planning Night that brings a variety of school resources together at one location and time. We strongly encourage all eighth grade students and their parents to attend at least one of these sessions to learn about the many options available to FWPS students.

School staff will be on hand to help students and parents determine the high school graduation plan they need to follow in order to achieve their post-high school goals. Students and parents will choose the specific plan that will guide their course selection for the next four years. Any change in this identified graduation plan will need to be approved by parents throughout the student's high school years.

At high school planning night, you will learn about programs and opportunities available around the district, and how to transfer into a high school other than your neighborhood school to take advantage of specific programs. Staff members from both middle and high schools -- including administrators, counselors, 8th grade advisors, high school Advancement via Independent Determination (AVID) coordinators, special education teachers, high school special education program specialists, English Language Learners (ELL) teachers, Career and Technical Education (CTE) teachers, career and college specialists, and translators -- will be on hand that night.

The time for all events is 6 – 8:30 p.m.

Each middle school is assigned to a specific High School for the Planning Night. If you can’t attend on the night specified for your middle school, please feel free to attend on one of the other evenings.
