Rising 6th & 9th Graders

The transition to middle and high school is an exciting yet significant milestone for students. For rising 6th graders, moving into middle school marks a shift to new routines, increased responsibilities, and a chance to explore a variety of academic and extracurricular opportunities. Similarly, rising 9th graders face the challenges of entering high school, where they begin laying the foundation for their future while navigating new expectations and experiences.

We are committed to making these transitions as smooth as possible by providing resources, guidance, and support for students and families. From orientation events and school tours to academic advising we aim to ensure every student feels prepared, confident, and connected as they take this next big step in their educational journey. Click the button below for a complete list of our BVSD counselors ready to assist you!
