Orientations vs. Registrations

What's the difference between an orientation and a registration session?

An orientation session is a time to meet with teachers and/or staff to learn new procedures and expectations. Participants in an orientation session would need to arrive at the starting time of the session in order to receive all the information being presented. Classroom teachers and administrators are available to share information with you and answer questions. Not all grade levels at Brown have orientations scheduled.

Registration sessions provide opportunities for parents to come in and take care of obligations prior to the start of school. You'll receive a copy of your child's course schedule (middle and high), and you'll be able to pay for school fees by writing only one check. If your child has any outstanding obligations from the previous school year (i.e., lost textbooks, cafeteria charges) you'll be able to take care of those as well. The PTSA will be accepting memberships and spirit wear will be sold. Grades 1 - 5 will be able to see class lists starting on Monday, August 6th at 11:00 AM, which will be posted in the school's lobby. Kindergarten class lists will be available during the Meet & Greet at 1:30 PM on Tuesday, August 14th.

Other Announcements

Parents with students entering grades K-2 may complete the Instructional Needs Feedback Form by June 10th.

Class assignments for grades 1 through 5 will be shared at registration. Due to privacy reasons, lists will not be posted.

All kindergarten required paperwork will be collected by records clerk during your child's Brigance appointment.

All 6th grade required paperwork will be collected during the scheduled orientation.
