COURSE PLACEMENT AND REGISTRATION
Course registration looks a little different for each division. Information about this was included in the welcome email you received after submitting your enrollment contract. A quick summary for each division is below.
RESOURCES IN HUSKY HUB
You can access our Parent Toolkit on the Resource Board in Husky Hub. After signing in, click “Resources” to see the Parent Toolkit. The Parent Toolkit includes information we shared with our current families for the 2023-24 school year.
In late April, the Parent Toolkit tile will be updated to a “Preparing for the 2024-25 School Year” tile. This resource provides checklists for each division containing important information for our parents and students for the upcoming school year. We will also provide information for completing required student forms such as health, bus service, after-care, pick-up authorization, and more.
While in Husky Hub, you can also click on “Child’s Name” or “Children” to access information about your students; click on “Calendar” to access the School’s Calendar, or click on “Directories” to access the School’s Online Directory.
SUMMER ON THE HILL
Spaces are still available for Summer on the Hill here on our campus! Our summer camp program offers enrichment, academic, and athletic camp options for kids in JK through 12th grade, as well as other options via our partner camps!
