Step-Up-to-Sixth and Fresh Start help students get jump start on middle, high school

Sixth-graders and high school freshman will get a sneak peak at their campuses on August 18. From 9 a.m. to noon, all seven Richland School District Two middle schools will hold a Step-Up-to-Sixth, to help smooth the transition from elementary to middle school for incoming sixth graders. This is the second year of Step-Up to Sixth, which allows time for students to acclimate to the middle school environment, meet the staff, tour the campus, and learn about clubs and programs offered.

On the same day, the district’s five high schools will again host Fresh Start a similar program for incoming freshmen from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m.
