Greetings Parents of Freshmen (Class of 2014):
It was great to see and speak with so many of you Thursday evening. For those unable to attend, we discussed the details, activities, and the over-arching themes for Freshman Immersion 2011. In developing our curriculum, we are focusing on the following “big picture” thematic goals: identity (personal, relational, grade-level, & community), opportunity (academic, experiential, community outreach, vocational, & life-long), and wellness (physical, emotional, spiritual, & nutritional).
Attached as a PDF is the Immersion Calendar that was distributed Thursday evening, reflecting the entire four-weeks of Freshman Immersion. As is the case with all Immersion Programs, since the daily activities contribute essential threads to the comprehensive fabric of our larger goals, please avoid scheduling any appointments during Immersion that would conflict with Immersion activities. Unless informed otherwise, Freshman Immersion will begin at 8:30 each morning; students will have homework assignments each night, be it reading, journal writing, or purposeful reflection.
We cannot wait for Immersion to begin! We look forward to working with your daughters and sons in the weeks to come.
With sincere regards,
The Freshman Immersion Team:
Mrs. Kemper, Mr. Wagner, Mr. Munhofen, Mrs. Sparks, & Mr. Williams
