Members of Bishop O’Dowd High School’s Class of 2023 gathered together as a group for the first time at the new student orientation, “Navigating O’Dowd,” held on campus May 4. The program is designed to help students achieve a smooth transition into high school, and to educate parents about O’Dowd’s programs and services.

The event began in the large gymnasium, where Director of Admissions Kerryn Pincus welcomed the parents and students.

The students then gathered in the theater and on the football field, where current O’Dowd students engaged them in fun, team-building activities. Parents, meanwhile, remained in the large gym where they participated in a parallel orientation session that featured presentations by administrators, teachers and counselors.

After the formal program, the students and their parents had an opportunity to meet with faculty, staff, students and coaches who were at informational tables in the annex and on the Quad. They also had a chance to purchase Dragon logo wear. Many also took time to check out the O’Dowd Art Festival, showcasing work from all fine arts classes in a wide range of mediums, set up in the small gymnasium.
