Upcoming Magnet Events

Welcome New Little Blues!

Into the Blue Orientation will be in August (date TBD). This event is a half-day orientation for rising 6th grade and new 7th and 8th grade students and their parents. Students will get to tour the building, learn about transitioning to Ligon, and will meet the teachers. Parents will have their own orientation session to help them with the transition to Ligon. Letters will be mailed out at the beginning of August with all of the back to school and welcome to Ligon information.
