School Transitions
Smooth and Successful Transitions
The CRMS counseling staff is dedicated to ensure your student has a smooth transition to middle school and high school. We communicate extensively with elementary school teachers, counselors, and administrators to gather data for placement. We then meet individually with every 8th grader to discuss high school courses and electives. We provide the high school counselors with pertinent information so they can have an overview of your student. Please contact us if you have any questions!
