The high school program begins with the 9th grade high school transition program. We plan an offsite orientation, designed to encourage team building and learning more about one another at the beginning of their Ursuline experience.
We schedule enrichment days for our 9th graders to meet in small groups with our trained Peer Leaders. These small groups provide a forum for the girls to discuss topics such as transitioning to high school, stress management and peer pressure. The Peer Leaders are juniors who have been specially selected and trained to facilitate these groups.
In the spring, there is an off-site Personal Development trip, dedicated to topics such as diversity, decision-making and goal-setting throughout high-school.
As the high school journey continues, there are continued “personal development days” with topics such as drug and alcohol awareness, smart decision making, prom safety and healthy relationships.
