Sept. 16, 2015 at 7pm Navigating ETHS: Resources for Parents

Join us on Wednesday, September 16th  to hear from key administrators and veteran parents.

  • Help your student make successful academic and extracurricular choices
  • Learn about school safety and discipline
  • Find out who to talk to if your student has a problem
  • Begin post-secondary planning (it’s never too soon!)
  • Meet administrators individually
  • Learn from the experiences of other parents

This town hall-like meeting will begin with brief presentations followed by a question and answer session. The evening will conclude with an informal period during which parents and guardians can speak to the panelists individually. All parents and guardians of ETHS students are invited to this free event.  No sign-up is required.

January 6, 2016 – Course Planning for Parents in E112 at 7pm

A meeting on course planning for the parents of CURRENT freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, providing parents the information they need to help their students make good choices of courses for the coming year. Students will begin meeting with their counselors after Winter Break to begin course planning for the 2016-2017 school year. This is an opportunity for parents to ask questions of staff in advance of those meetings.

There will be a representative from each department, a representative from the College and Career Center, and members of the counseling staff available to answer both general and specific questions.

It will begin with a Q&A panel, where parents may ask general questions about courses and how different options might affect post-secondary choices, followed by an opportunity for parents to talk to staff one-on-one about their own students’ options.

REMINDER: While members of the counseling department will be on-hand to answer questions, this meeting is not intended for individual counseling. It is always better to discuss concerns and questions with your student’s counselor because they have the entire picture of the student. If you have specific questions about your student’s schedule, course options, or post-secondary plans, you are encouraged to contact your student’s counselor.
