The date for eighth-graders to participate in shadowing a Grant student is Tuesday, February 9th 2010. A permission form (download here) must be returned to Grant by January 29th. Shadow Opportunity days at Grant High School are restricted to eighth-grade students interested in attending Grant High School as freshmen next year who have completed all appropriate paperwork by the deadline. Current eighth-graders will be matched with a ninth-grader. If you would like to request a ninth-grade host, you may do so; however the ninth-grader must be a student in good standing for both academics and citizenship.
Students must report to the Library on the main floor of Grant H.S. at 7:45 a.m. to sign in and meet their host student. Parents must check their students in; please allow up to an hour for check-in. Students will not be allowed to shadow if we have not received the appropriate paperwork.
Parents/guardians will receive an email confirming receipt of paperwork by the Friday preceding their student’s scheduled visit. Please remind your eighth-grader to bring a brown bag lunch or money for the cafeteria. Eighth-graders and their hosts will be encouraged to remain on campus for lunch.
