A few reminders to help the day go smoothly:
- Lockers can be dusty. Feel free to bring wipes or decorating supplies.
- Photos taken at Orientation will appear in the yearbook. Dress accordingly!
- PE uniforms can be purchased by cash or check only. No credit cards or online payments.
- Class Schedules may shift based on enrollment. Counselors will not be making schedule changes during Orientation.
- Don’t forget to visit our Friends of Reed and PTSA tables and get involved!
Attendance is optional. If your student can’t make it, don’t worry. Everything can be handled during the first weeks of school. We’ll also offer a make-up picture day once the year begins.
Enjoy the rest of your summer. We look forward to seeing you soon!
Warmly,
Paul DeBonis
