They will then meet their counselor and proceed through a schedule of orientation activities.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n School lunch will be available for purchase on Freshman Orientation Day.\u00a0 Freshmen may either bring their own lunch or purchase lunch through our cashless school cafeteria.\u00a0 We are in the process of transferring to a new food service vendor, and information will be sent out to families about setting up a new account prior to the start of school.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n ACTIVITIES FAIR:<\/u> \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n An Activities Fair is included in the Freshman Orientation program from 12:00 p.m. to 1:00 p.m. The fair will take place in the Main Gym and will allow freshmen to explore many co-curricular options.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n This year, we will have one scheduled Back to School Night<\/strong>. Parents of 9th-12th graders<\/strong> are invited to attend on Tuesday, August 30th<\/strong>.\u00a0 The evening program will begin in the main gymnasium at 6:30 p.m.\u00a0 Parents are reminded to bring a copy of their student\u2019s schedule to this popular year-opening event.

This system will allow you to view your student\u2019s schedule, assignments, attendance, locker information, and fees. \u00a0In addition, your student\u2019s bus route and pick-up time will be available in Aspen. (Please note that the transportation department will not mail home bus cards.)\u00a0 If you already have an account in Aspen from last year, please note that your freshman will be automatically added to your account. \u00a0If you have any problems with your parent Aspen account, please contact Sherri DiMarcello, Database Manager, at sdimarcello@nhvweb.net.<\/a> \u00a0For tutorials to help you navigate Aspen, please visit https:\/\/www.nhvweb.net\/technology\/aspen\/aspen-family-portal-intro\/<\/a>. CHROMEBOOKS AND INTERNET ACCESS:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Our school district has a 1:1 initiative that provides a Chromebook and an assigned password to every student. Students have the option to accept the district-issued Chromebook or to bring in their own Chromebook.\u00a0 If your child will be accepting the district-issued Chromebook, they will receive a Chromebook during orientation on August 24th,<\/sup>\u00a0provided you have completed the agreement form in Aspen (see information below). \u00a0If your child opts to bring their own personal Chromebook, please click here<\/a> for a list of acceptable devices. \u00a0Your child will need to bring their own Chromebook to orientation so we can register the device on the school network, or they can visit the Technology Resource Center outside Cafeteria A during the regular school day.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Parents must<\/u> complete a Chromebook agreement form and the acceptable use policy form in Aspen in order for their child to receive a Chromebook and gain access to the Internet and school network. Parents of students bringing their own Chromebook must also fill out an agreement form. These forms are available in Aspen, under Page Directory, then Technology Forms.\u00a0 Please fill out one of the Chromebook agreement forms and the acceptable use policy form prior to August 24th so there is no delay in providing your child with school network access and a Chromebook.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n PARENT ORGANIZATIONS:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n Parent organizations are an important part of the school community at North Hunterdon High School.
