Incoming 6th Grader Information
May 1, 2025
Hello incoming 6th graders and family members,
We are happy to welcome you to Cabrillo. Cabrillo is a lovely and welcoming campus that is easy to navigate and we will do our best to make your student’s transition from 5th to 6th grade goes smoothly. Over the next few months, there are a few dates that you need to know about. Please mark your calendars.
6th Grade Orientation - Where Everybody Belongs (WEB)
Students will get to meet administrators and some teachers, get to know each other, tour the campus, and pick up their class schedules. They will also participate in some fun activities. Students should dress casually and tennis shoes are recommended, as are hats and sunscreen. Snacks and water will be provided around 11AM.
Students will not need their backpacks. As a reminder, Cabrillo is cell phone and device free environment next year and cell phones should not be out. It is recommended that they are not brought to the orientation. The main office will be open if needed.
First day of school and 6th Grade Parent Welcome
The first day of school is August 13th and it is a regular bell schedule with classes starting at 8:30AM. Parents are invited to join the PTSA for our 6th Grade Parent Welcome in the Cafeteria when students head to class.
