Bridge to Blackhawk Program for Current 5th Grade Students
At Blackhawk everyone BELONGS and we want to ensure that incoming 6th graders for the 23-24 school year have an opportunity to become familiar with becoming a Blackhawk.
Bridge to Blackhawk 6th grade orientation is a two-day event where students will meet their 6th grade Principal, Teachers, and other staff. Students will follow a shortened version of their class schedule, tour the school, have lockers assigned, and pick-up their technology. Students will also participate in community building activities and learn behavior expectations. Additional details will be posted later this summer. This event is for students only.
Additional Details:
- Wednesday-Thursday August 9-10 from 8 to 11:30 am
Registration Reminder
Reminders About Visitor Protocol and Student Sign-Out
Earlier this school year, an enhanced visitor protocol was implemented across the District. As a reminder, when a parent or visitor comes to any of the schools they will need to press the intercom button. A member of the staff will come on the intercom system and request the visitor/parent to identify themself and the reason for the visit.
Regardless of our familiarity with you or the frequency of your visits to our schools, you will still be asked to identify yourself and the purpose of your visit every time. We ask that you adhere to this process and state your name and the reason for your visit (i.e. picking up your child, dropping off an item, etc.) so that we can continue to enhance the safety of our schools. If signing your child out of school, the office staff will ask to see your ID to ensure that the person that is picking up the child is a guardian or an approved adult.
