New Back to School Days Format for 26/27

Back to School Days — New Format for 2026/27

This summer is two weeks shorter than usual, so we've made some changes to Back to School Days to help families enjoy as much of summer as possible.

What's Different This Year

With the exception of Student Photo ID cards, all Back to School Day items will be completed online.

Student Photo ID Cards

ID photos will be taken in person in Rooms 202, 203, and 204 from 8:00 AM – 11:00 AM, July 27 – July 31.

Students of any grade level may come on any day during this window, no specific date is assigned by grade.

Completed Online This Year

The following can all be completed from home:

  • Data Confirmation
  • Payments and Purchases (pick up items will be either Aug. 10-12 or the first two weeks of school)
  • Parking Passes (seniors will get issued first and can pick up beginning July 27, juniors can begin picking up August 10)
  • Scheduling Questions (email your counselor directly)

What about textbooks or chromebooks, class schedules, and the health office?

  • Textbooks and chromebooks will both be done with teachers during the first full week of school.
  • Class schedules will be available for viewing through Aeries.
  • The health office will be open July 27-31, 8am-11am, to drop off any medications, updated immunization records, or paperwork.

Why the Change?

We know this is different from past years, but moving these items online allows families to keep more of their summer break while still getting everything done before the school year begins.

Class of 2027, do you still need to schedule your senior portrait appointment? Book your appointment at schoolhousephoto.com. Appointment dates begin July 15 and end July 22. They fill up fast.

Enjoy your summer, Golden Hawks!
