Grade 5 to 6 Transitions

Getting Ready for Grade 6- Student Visits

In the spring, we invite Grade 5 students from our feeder schools to a planned visit at Hodgson MS.  

Grade 5 students will come to Hodgson with their class and homeroom teachers. During the visit they will participate in presentations about Hodgson by students, teachers and staff. Grade 5 students will have a chance to ask questions as well.  A student-guided tour of Hodgson will also be a highlight of this visit.  At the end of the session, students will return to their schools with their classes and teachers. 

More detailed information will be provided closer to the time.

Frequently Asked Questions

My child attends another school, but wants to go to Hodgson. Can she join the visit? Yes, if your primary address is in our attendance area, your child is welcome to join us.  Please call the office to let us know so we can be prepared.

We don't live in your area. Can we join on that day?  The visit is only for students who live in our attendance area.  When you move into our area and have registered, we would be happy to have a school visit and tour.  

Will the parents/guardians have a chance to visit Hodgson M.S.? Hodgson offers an annual HodgePodge evening in the Spring when we invite our feeder school parents and children (along with our current parents) to attend the event.
