Link Day is the first day for freshmen held on Aug. 13 and includes relay races and activities to introduce freshmen to the school. The day started off with all freshmen meeting in the cafeteria before getting in groups with their Link Leaders. Link Leaders are juniors and seniors who apply the year prior to be selected. After meeting their Link Leaders the freshmen play games and dress up in themed costumes such as ducks following a piece of bread, wizards and many more in classrooms across the school. After the Link Leaders give the freshmen a tour of the school they are brought back into the main gym for a pep assembly including games such as balloon relay races and learning school chants. Finally the freshmen went to all of their seven classes to meet their teachers and classmates.
