Middle School Transition 

 

Students living in the Olympia High School attendance boundaries and are currently enrolled in one of our feeder middle schools will be automatically “roll up” to Olympia High School.

 

If you are coming from any other school or live outside of the Olympia High School attendance boundary, please visit our enrollment page at

Our counseling team is unable to individually meet with incoming Freshmen families, however this site will be updated with important information to help with the middle school to high school transition process along with two in person events:

  • Welcome Night at OHS on April 9, 2025 from 6:00pm to 7:30pm (enter the building from the Carlyon Street/Commons entrance)
  • Freshman Orientation - Fall 2025
