Dana Middle School FAQs
We are unable to attend the Student Orientation on September 3. Will there be another event?I'm sorry to hear you will not be able to attend the orientation session. Unfortunately our campus will not be open again before September 7 (first day of school).
We recognize there is a big transition to middle school for 5th grade students. The campus is new and it is their first time experiencing a schedule with multiple periods. You can help lower their anxiety level. A copy of our campus map is available online.
This map contains room numbers and important campus locations such as bathrooms, lunch court, playground, library, etc. Please download this map and review it with your child.
Some students become temporarily lost as they navigate from class to class during the first week of school. We proactively help reduce this problem by placing staff members with maps at strategic locations. These staff members look for students who are lost and quickly direct them to the right classroom. Teachers understand this is a new experience for students and adjust their tardy policies accordingly.
