RHS 8th Grade Parent Night
January 28 at Roxbury High School
Reminder - Tonight's the Night!
Greetings Class of 2029 students and families,
Earlier today, your EMS 8th grader had the opportunity to meet Roxbury High School Principal Mr. William Crispino, along with several members of the RHS Administrative and Counseling teams. As a follow-up to today's program, you are cordially invited to attend our annual 8th Grade Parent Night at Roxbury High School later this evening.
There are two parts to the parent program, as outlined below:
- 5:30-6:00 - Special Services Parent Program in the RHS Media Center - This is for students and families that are supported through our Special Education programs and related services.
- 6:00-8:00 - Full 8th Grade Parent Program in the RHS Auditorium - This event is open to ALL 8th Grade students and families. This will be a chance for you and your 8th grader to meet Mr. Crispino and the Roxbury High School administrative team, learn about the exciting programs and courses offered at RHS. This program is similar to today's student assembly, but geared more towards the parent's critical role in this transition process. Accordingly, students are welcome but certainly not required to attend.
If you are unable to make it tonight, here are some resources that may be of interest to you:
Even if your student is considering attending high school elsewhere, we encourage you to attend this evening and take advantage of this opportunity to prepare for all possible high school outcomes.
As always, thank you for your time, partnership and continued support!
Kind regards,
Mr. Gallagher
Please mark your calendars! Key dates for rising freshmen and their families:
