PTHS Freshman Orientation: August 11

Peters Township High School is excited to welcome our newest class to our school. While this will be an unusual start to the year for all students, we wanted to be sure to welcome our freshman class and provide them with an orientation and ongoing supports as part of the High School experience.

On Tuesday, August 11, all 9th graders who have opted for traditional, in-classroom education this fall are invited to attend an orientation session. In accordance with our safety plan and regulations outlined by the Departments of Health and Education, we will be dividing the class into two sections:

• Group 1: Last Names A – Mal will attend from 9-10:30 a.m.
• Students will last names starting with A – G will enter through the courtyard doors and should be dropped off by the football stadium entrance.
• Students with last names starting with H – Mal will enter through the high schools main building entrance.
• Group 2: Last Names Mar- Z will attend from 11-12:30 p.m.
• Students will last names starting with Mar-S will enter through the courtyard doors and should be dropped off by the football stadium entrance.
• Students with last names starting with T-Z will enter through the high schools main building entrance.

Students will engage in small group activities to help orient them to the school while also receiving a tour of the campus.  Two to three upperclassman ambassadors will be leading each small group – and running tours.

Throughout the year, students will have the opportunity to meet with these same ambassadors for activities and discussions regarding their high school experience.

Please note that this orientation is for students only and all safety precautions will be taken while students are at the school and masks will be required. Please note that if you are sick, have a fever or have been exposed to someone who has a confirmed case of COVID-19, please do not come to school.
