Freshman Parent Information7/27/2021 Parents of the Class of 2025,
Welcome to Olathe North High School. We are excited for you to join Eagle Nation and the start of another great school year. Hopefully you received information pertaining to registration. If not, it is listed on my blog https://jasonhermanon.weebly.com/newsletter/registration-information3593936 That leads me to my first point. The majority of the communication from Olathe North comes through our Blackboard email system or on my blog page. Please favorite www.jasonhermanon.weebly.com This website will take you to my blog home page. From there you click the menu button on the top left of the page and can go to the newsletter, fundraisers and student recognition pages. Most of the information will be on the newsletter page. (You are currently on the newsletter page). Here are some commonly asked questions about the start of school, along with registration. If I already enrolled on ParentVUE and paid fees on TouchBase do I need to attend Registration at Olathe North for any reason? -If you registered and paid fees online you do NOT need to come to ON for any reason. When will my student receive their student ID? -Student ID's will be distributed to all students on Aug 20th when the students take school pictures. (More information to follow on school pictures) When will my student receive the PE uniform that I paid for online? -All PE uniforms will be distributed to the students during their PE hour during the first week of school. How will my student eat school lunch without a student ID? -To receive school lunch your student needs to know their student Id which they can type in to the card holder. Please see additional information on the lunch plan nationally. NEW THIS YEAR: The USDA has announced that the National School Breakfast and Lunch program will be free for all students during the 2021-22 school year. Students will not be charged for “combo” breakfast or lunch in the coming school year. A la carte menu selections at middle and high and extra milk and juice at elementary will be charged to a student’s MyPaymentsPlus account. It’s vital that families who have qualified for free and reduced lunch or families who would benefit from reduced or free district fees fill out the Kansas State Department of Education Household Economic Survey to continue to receive free or reduced school registration fees, transportation fees and other fees and school costs. Please do so by going to https://onbase.olatheschools.com/forms/household_economic_survey.html. When will my student receive their locker and locker combination? -Lockers are an option for all students. Most students do not use lockers in high school, however if you want a locker please come to the office and request a locker from Mrs. Barrandey What do my students need to bring on the first 1/2 day on Aug 12th? -Freshman students do not need to bring any items with them on Aug 12th. This is our LINK Crew day and students will be involved in team building and school tours. When can my student visit ON to walk their schedule? -Freshman can walk their schedule from 1:00-6:00pm on Aug 3rd. Our building is open for you to visit. My freshman is older why can't I order a parking pass online? -Olathe North has limited parking spots on campus, we only allow upper class-men to pay for parking online. Any freshman that has a restricted driver license must visit with an administrator to receive special circumstances and will then be placed on a waiting list. After we receive our schedule when can we schedule an appointment for a schedule change? -All schedule change requests can be made through email request to the alpha counselor. If request cannot be completed over email the counselor will contact the student or family. See the ONHS website and visit the counseling tab for more detailed information. My freshman student is interested in playing a Fall Sport. What do they need to do? -Football, Volleyball, Girl's Golf, Men's Soccer, Gymnastics, and Cross Country are fall sports. Please go to the athletic page on the Olathe North website to contact a coach. Some of our sports have already been preparing. All freshman are welcome to come out on Aug 16th as long as they have a physical form and a concussion form completed. These forms are online under the athletic tab on the Olathe North website. What does Aug 12th look like for my student? -Wednesday, August 12th, all freshman are to report to Olathe North at 8:00am. Freshman do not need to bring anything to school with them that day. Students will eat lunch that day. If your student wants to bring their own lunch, they are welcome to do that. Students will be released at 12:15. Buses will run normal pick up times in the morning and will leave Olathe North at 12:22. Please make sure your student knows what bus they ride by number. That evening all Olathe North freshman and parents are invited to our annual "Welcome to the Eagles Nest Night". A post card will be mailed home with this information. The freshman will have a 9th grade only mixer in the Aux gym from 6:30-8:00. There will be an informative parent meeting in the Auditorium, with yours truly, from 6:45-7:15. Then parents will breakout to meet your student's alpha administrator and counselor. Both events will conclude at 8:00pm.

We do not have a student supply list for high school students. All students will be told what supplies they will need for each class. Basic supplies will get your student through weeks one and two.

Dear parents,
Online registration for the 2021-22 school year is now open in ParentVUE. Parents may now log into their ParentVUE account by going to http://parentvue.olatheschools.com. There, they will be able to complete all the necessary registration documents for each of their children, including making sure contact and demographic information is up-to-date. Please note: Online Registration cannot be completed in the ParentVUE app. You must open ParentVUE in a web browser such as Chrome or Safari to access online registration. It is recommended that you use a desktop or laptop to easily complete the process. It's important to note that families new to the district and those who have not been to kindergarten roundup will need to contact their child’s school beginning on July 19 to set up an appointment to come into the building to register. Families in need of assistance with registration can set up an appointment to visit their child’s school or call the district’s Registration Helpline at 913-780-7781. Parents are asked to enroll their children by the end of the day on July 29. Parents can pay student and school fees through TouchBase. MyPaymentsPlus will still be used to collect and monitor lunch fees.

For questions on the TouchBase online fee payment system, please visit www.olatheschools.org/feepayment.

A la carte menu selections at middle and high and extra milk and juice at elementary will be charged to a student’s MyPayments Plus account.
