To help students and parents feel confident and prepared for the 2026-2027 school year, Osceola School District’s secondary schools are excited to host Student Orientation Nights. These events are designed for students who will be entering sixth or ninth grade next year, along with their parents or guardians. Attending Orientation Night is a valuable way to get to know your future school—meet the principal and key staff, explore the campus, learn about academic programs, and discover extracurricular opportunities like sports, clubs, and arts programs. You’ll also receive important information about schedules, transportation, school policies, and tips for a smooth transition. Whether you're feeling excited, curious, or even a little nervous, Orientation Night is the perfect chance to ask questions, connect with other families, and start the new school year with confidence.
