High School Parent & Student Orientation

  • IEF SCHOOLS - GHS 369 Passaic Avenue Fairfield, New Jersey, 07004 United States (map)

High school orientation serves as a comprehensive transition program designed to help students and families navigate the shift into secondary education. The event typically begins with schedule pickup and campus navigation, where students walk through their daily schedule, locate classrooms, find the gym, library, and cafeteria, and locate their assigned locker.

The administrative presentation introduces school leadership, guidance counselors, and department heads. Presenters outline academic expectations, graduation requirements, credit structures, and GPA calculations. Key operational policies are also covered, including attendance policies, dress codes, electronic device rules, and student code of conduct expectations.

Families receive practical information regarding technology, transportation, and daily logistics. Guidance is provided on accessing the online student portal for monitoring grades and attendance, setting up lunch accounts, and managing bus schedules or campus parking permits for upperclassmen.

The event concludes with an overview of student life and campus involvement. Representatives from various athletic teams, fine arts programs, academic honor societies, and extracurricular clubs present opportunities for involvement, while parents learn about parent-teacher organizations, volunteer opportunities, and primary communication channels for staying connected with teachers and staff.
