TRANSITIONS (back)

Your counselors meet with Sherwood Middle School and our high school for articulation and scheduling purposes throughout the school year. If necessary, please put any pertinent information about your child in writing the spring before he/she enters the new school year and send it to your child’s guidance office. For example: medical concern/issues, peer conflicts and placement requests. All scheduling for the following year is completed by June. Therefore, all written requests must be in by April of the previous year. If you have any questions or concern about your child’s transition, please do not hesitate to call us.
