Save the Date: 9th Grade Registration

We are making preparations to welcome your student as a ninth grader at Cambridge-Isanti High School. We encourage you to attend virtually if you are able and may access the livestream or view the registration documents located in your students’ Google Classroom account. If you do not have reliable internet service, you may attend the presentation at Cambridge-Isanti High School.

Registration Night

Cambridge-Isanti High School

Performing Arts Center

Tuesday February 28th, 2023 at 5:30 pm

We will begin the presentation promptly at 5:30 pm. If you are attending in person, there will be some tables set up for you to explore some opportunities that CIHS has to offer. If you are viewing the livestream, the materials will also be in the Google Classroom. The presentation lasts approximately 30 minutes. Due to limited seating we ask that only parent(s)/guardian(s) and your 8th grade student attend.

If you are choosing to view the materials on your own, a recording of this presentation will be made available on the CIHS website the day of the presentation. Registration materials can be printed from our website or your student may follow up with their counselor the following day.

IMS Counselors:

Terri Emmons (last names A-L) 763-691-8659
Erin Foley (last names M-Z) 763-691-8613

The primary purpose of this evening is to assist students and parents in making decisions about high school. Specific topics include:

the registration process
required and elective courses
opportunities the high school offers
post-high school education requirements

Registration materials and other pertinent information will be distributed.

If you attend in person, please sit with your student during the information session or review the materials online together. We look forward to meeting you and beginning the school/home dialogue that is essential to student success in high school.

Following the parent information night, students will complete their registration via Google form. Registration materials such as the CIHS registration guide and other important information will be available in your students’ Google Classroom before registration. Although the transition to high school is exciting, most students approach it with some anxiety. We would like to alleviate the anxiety by giving you and your student an opportunity to start becoming familiar with the school and staff. We look forward to meeting you.

Sincerely,

The CIHS Counseling Department

Parents Are Key (PAK)

Have some questions about how we do things at IMS? Wondering about Grading Practices? Not sure what courses are offered, and why, in each grade? Not sure what progressive discipline means, or what PBIS stands for...

Get some answers to questions you may have, or just join in good dialogue about what it means to be a middle school student, parent, or staff member.
