There are many challenges when transitioning from middle school to high school, so this year, during flex, all freshmen students will be following a curriculum that will help them navigate high school better. The curriculum includes learning how to access X2, learning how to construct an e-mail, registering for "school links" (a program that will help students explore careers and apply to colleges), exploring extracurricular programs and many more! Implemented into this curriculum are mini challenges that students can participate in to win prizes! This week, Ms. Harmon delivered prizes to 10 students who won the mini challenge!
