Link Day- the first day of high school for freshmen – was held on Aug. 13, and included activities such as relay races and introduction activities.The day began with all freshmen meeting in the cafeteria before students broke into groups with their Link Leaders. Link Leaders were juniors and seniors selected through an application process the previous year.
After meeting their leaders, freshmen played games and dressed in themed costumes such as ducks following a piece of bread. Following this, Link Leaders gave tours of the school before bringing the groups to the main gym for a pep assembly that featured balloon relay races and school chants.
The day concluded with freshmen attending all seven of their classes to meet their teachers and classmates.
