Freshman Orientation 2021
Hello!
We are very excited that your child will be attending Clermont Northeastern High School, and we look forward to meeting your student on Orientation Day. Our school participates in the nationwide Link Crew Program, an organization whose sole purpose is to help freshmen feel more comfortable as well as help them achieve success in their first year of high school.
The Link Crew freshman orientation and transition program is designed to both welcome and support freshmen by assigning them junior and/or senior Link Leaders as mentors during this first year. This Link Leader is a responsible older student who was hand selected from a large pool of applicants and has met the qualifications of being a good role model and a positive leader on our campus.
Following is some information to let you know what you and your student can expect in advance of their first day of school.
Your child can expect to receive an invitation to Freshman Orientation Day via their school email (@cneschools.org Gmail account or the email the school has on file). If he or she has not received the invitation by Monday, August 9th, please call the main office and request one;
A day or two before orientation your child will also receive a phone call from her or his Link Crew Leader personally inviting your student to orientation day and giving the details of where to be and what time;
Your child is encouraged not to bring backpacks, purses or other like items as the day is quite active, and we will supply all necessary materials;
Because the day is active, please make sure that your child wears comfortable clothing and shoes that do not restrict movement.
This is a student only function, so we encourage you to let your child attend on her or his own. If you feel there are any special considerations (medical, sensory, food allergy, special needs, etc.) we need to be aware of prior to orientation, please inform us or the main office prior to the morning of orientation so that we can make any necessary arrangements/adjustments to welcome everyone in the safest, most inclusive way possible.
We look forward to meeting you and your child on orientation day!
