Wildcat Check-In Days are for students to: 
  • Take their student ID picture.  All student IDs are digital.  Students need to download the app called "Minga".  The barcode will be their ticket to all dances/home games and hall passes during the school day. Step by step directions. The picture will automatically populate on the digital app. 
  • Pick up an ASB shirt if applicable. 
  • Check out Chromebooks from the library and clear accounts if necessary.
  • Pick up their class list.  Official schedules will be in the Aeries parent portal on Friday August 9th. Please make sure to check it the evening before school starts.  We try to minimize as many last minute changes as possible, but it does happen.
Check in days can be quite crowded.  You can come anytime between 8am - 1pm.  11:30-12:30 typically is the slowest. The whole process should take about 30 minutes. 

All parents/guardians must complete the annual review of district and school documents and confirm address and emergency information for the new school year by completing the Data Confirmation in the Aeries Parent Portal prior to Wildcat Check-In Days. Parent Portal Directions

Counseling: Course Change Requests must be submitted online. No Walk-in/On-the-spot changes will be accepted. Counselors will not be available on check in days.
ASB/Student Store: Note: the student store accepts cash, check or card.

Webstore: It is highly recommended you purchase items though our webstore prior to check in day. All families that purchase online can skip the long Student Store lines on check in day.  


PE Clothes: Students will receive their clothes in their PE class. 

ASB Card: When purchased a sticker will appear on their digital ID card.  Please be patient, this can sometimes take up to a week. All ASB card holders receive the following:
