Link Crew is a program that helps "link" Freshmen to the high school. Link Crew puts on a number of events, including Freshmen orientation, football tailgate parties, and Freshmen movie night. Link Crew Leaders work with the Freshman class to help the Freshmen make successful transitions to the high school. The Link Crew Leaders would very much like to have the ability to serve popcorn at Freshmen orientation, the Freshmen football tailgate parties, Freshmen movie night, and at other Link Crew events. At the Freshmen Orientation, each Link Leader is given a small group of Freshmen to work with that day and the Link Leaders are asked to befriend and to help that group during the first week of school with any challenges they may face. Periodically, during the school year, Link Leaders meet again with their student groups to touch base, discuss problems, and plan social activities. We know that, as a general rule, the more contact a Freshman has with her/his Link Leader, the more successful they will be at the High School.
