Students entering grades six and nine and Copiague Middle School and Walter G. O’Connell Copiague High School received a sneak peak of the 2010-2011 school year as they participated in the annual Sixth-Grade and Freshman Orientations and BBQs.
During the orientation and barbecue at the middle school, each of the homeroom teachers gave their students and parents a tour of the entire school so that the students would be familiar with the location of their classes prior to the first day of school. The tours concluded in the students’ homerooms, where they were given their new course schedules and locker combinations.
At the high school, students had an opportunity to meet with administrators, receive their schedule, test out their lockers, and participate in a period-by-period walk through of their first day. Each orientation also included a barbecue featuring hamburgers, hot dogs, soda and chips, and the chance for parents to join the PTA and register to vote and students to register for a library card at the Copiague Memorial Public Library.
