Dear Wolcott Tech Family,
Welcome to all new and returning Wolcott Tech families for the 2023-24 school year.
Our school year begins on Wednesday, August 30th for grades 9 – 11. Senior mentors will be in school that day to assist with freshman orientation. All other seniors will report to school on Thursday, August 31st. Our school day begins at 7:15 and ends at 2:04. Grades 9 and 12 will begin in academics and grades 10 and 11 will report to their trade/technology areas for the first cycle. Students should be in the appropriate uniform when they report.
For uniform info visit https://wolcott.cttech.org/parents-students/uniforms/ Questions on bus transportation should be directed to your local school district.
You should have received an e-mail recently from our central office regarding PowerSchool registration. This registration process serves as an update on important information for returning families and as an initial information entry for new students. If you have questions on this PowerSchool registration process, please call the School Counseling office at 860-496-5318.
Please review the summer reading program at our website at https://wolcott.cttech.org/Note that incoming grade 9 students have a slightly different requirement than other grades. Every grade 9 student will be issued a Chromebook. Additional information on the use of Chromebooks and other digital tools will follow. Any school supplies needed for particular classes will be shared by teachers once school starts.
This will not be the only communication regarding the upcoming school year. We will be sending out more information until the start of school. All communication from the school will be e-mailed to families and students and posted on the school’s website. Also, the school website at https://wolcott.cttech.org/ contains information on the school calendar, athletics, staff contacts and more. Please contact the school if you have questions.
Sincerely,
Richard C. Shellman
Principal
