June 21, 2024 Washtenaw Technical Middle College
New Student Orientation is Thursday, August 22
Hello new WTMC families,
Welcome! I hope you’re enjoying your summer and are ready to begin an exciting year at Washtenaw Technical Middle College. I’m reaching out to share information about the upcoming New-Student Orientation on Thursday, August 22. The first day of WTMC classes for new students is Friday, August 23. Orientation will begin on the 2nd floor of the Crane Liberal Arts & Sciences (LA) building on the campus of WCC. Please see the WCC Room Locator to amke sure you know where to go.
It’s very important that all new students attend orientation on Thursday, August 22 with at least one parent/guardian. To reduce crowding, the day is divided into four sessions by BASE advisor. Please come during your assigned session at the time listed on the schedule. Orientation will include a short presentation, a chance to meet with your new BASE advisor, and a campus tour led by WTMC student ambassadors.
Important information will be given out at orientation. You will receive your student/parent handbooks, class schedules and PowerSchool log-in information. Families will also have the opportunity to connect with other families looking for carpool arrangements.
Orientation includes a campus tour. WTMC student ambassadors will walk families through the college campus and offer insights and tips for finding your way around. This is a great time to ask current students about what it’s like to attend high school on a college campus.
The first day of WTMC classes is Friday, August 23 and will run from 10:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. and follow the regular Friday WTMC schedule. BASE advisors will provide more information about the schedule at orientation.
I look forward to seeing you at orientation and hope you enjoy the rest of your summer vacation.
Regards,
Karl Covert
