IMPORTANT: New Incoming 6th and 7th graders!

Hello incoming 6th and 7 th Grade Parents!

We are very excited that your child will be attending Alder Middle School, and we look forward to seeing them at our 6 th & 7 th Grade Orientation Day on Tuesday July 25 at 8am in the GYM. 

Our WEB Program will help get your new 6 th   or 7 th grader off to a great start! 6 th graders will pick up their books, schedules, and laptops on Friday, July 28 and 7th graders will pick up their books, and schedules on Thursday, July 27 in the Alder Cafeteria.

WHAT IS WEB?

WEB is a nationwide program designed to welcome and support new 6 th & 7 th graders by connecting them with WEB Leaders, who are positive, responsible, & hand-selected 8th graders. Your student’s WEB Leaders will help them feel more comfortable as well as help them achieve success in their first year of middle school. Doesn’t that sound great? It is!

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?

  1. Your child will receive an invitation sent via mail to orientation. If they have not received the invitation by now, please email Ms. Franklin at franme@fusd.net or Mrs. Weber at melissa.weber@fusd.net to request one.
  2. Your student is encouraged not to bring backpacks, purses or other like items as the day is quite active.
  3. Because the day is active, please make sure that your student wears comfortable clothing that does not restrict movement.
  4. Cell phone use is not allowed on this day. They need to stay in pockets. 

This is a student only function, so we encourage you to let your child attend on their own. You may join them the following day for registration and schedule pick up.

We look forward to a great orientation day and school year!
