Parents/Guardians of current fifth grade students are invited to an orientation meeting on Thursday, February 13, 2020, at Julius West Middle School at 7:30 p.m. in the cafeteria. The purpose of this meeting is to provide information about the sixth grade program at Julius West. Our goal is to provide the best program possible for each student. 

If your child has an Individualized Education Program (IEP), you are also invited to attend the IEP information session at 7:00 p.m. in the media center. The purpose of this session is to provide information about the program, services, supports, and interventions.

In addition to this orientation meeting for parents, Julius West counselors will be visiting elementary schools to meet with the fifth grade students. Between February 10th and February 12th, a counselor will talk to your child’s class about Julius West and explain the registration and course selection process for the 2020-2021 school year. 

We look forward to meeting you on February 13th and we appreciate your support in making this transition between elementary and middle school as successful as possible. If you need a translator or interpreter, please contact the counseling office at 301-337-3410 as soon as possible.
