On Thursday, Aug. 18 en<\/span><\/span> 7:30 a.m. at Mission Bay High, parents and freshman students gathered <\/span><\/span>in small groups outside the gym, some standing alone, others in small clusters with friends, some nervous, some excited, all waiting for their high school orientation to begin. At 7:55 a.m. Lindsey Littlefield, ASB teacher, steps out of the gym and welcomes the new ninth-grade<\/span>\u00a0students. She promises the parents their students will be well cared for and sends them off to their parent orientation at a different location on campus.<\/p>\nI<\/span><\/span>nside the gym, ASB officers, orientation committee members, athletes, school club members, and cheerleaders are ready to welcome the new ninth-grade classmates for the beginning of the 2022-2023 school year. At 8 a.m. the gym doors open and the nervous freshman are greeted with a gauntlet of cheering, smiling, waving upper classmates. The message is clear: Welcome to Mission Bay High School. \u201cWe want you here! You belong here! You are part of us! Go Bucs!\u201d<\/p>\nThe new students received name tags and are placed into small groups of 8-10<\/span><\/span> students. Led by two upper-class members, freshmen toured the school, and participated in group activities in various classrooms designed for freshmen to meet other students, and learn the ropes and guidelines of the school. Jorge Palacios, athletic D<\/span><\/span>irector and MC for the orientation experience said, \u201cOur goal is for every freshman to know 6-7 other students when they walk on campus the first day of school.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
