The programming office is working on giving students like you prefects and counselors. i'm not sure when you will be receiving this information. If you are in that great of a need to know I suggest you visit the programming office (any time from 7:45 to 3:30 in 1W12).
1) What is Daedalus?
Daedalus is a system that our schools uses that allows you to see your report card, transcript, days with absences and cuts, schedule, and sign up for courses next year. You'll see when you get an account [look at next question].
2) How can I get all those accounts (bths email, Daedalus, Moodle, Skedula)? I'm not registered into those yet, so when I enter my username and password, it doesn't work.
You will probably be given all the information in the near future (tech doesn't really get everything done first few days of school). No one has a skedula account yet. As for Daedalus, BTHS email, and Moodle, your username will most likey be your fist initial, last name, last 4 digits of your OSIS and password will most likely be your OSIS (moodle might be different). Naviance you will have to use an email. As I said before, you will get all the information from someone, and since you're a freshman this will most likely happen during your technology class. You'll just have to wait.
3) When do you go in the locker rooms? Like, after the late bell?
Everyone is supposed to start changing this Tuesday the 13th. You should purchase the combo-set (t-shirt, shorts, and a lock). That should be around $30. You must arrive to the locker rooms (south of the 3rd floor) BEFORE the late bell rings. Depending on how late you are (a few seconds, the teacher might still let you in), you can be locked out and will have to suffer the consequences of being unprepared (negative mark).
If you are talking about regular lockers, you can get a locker where-ever you want. Different teachers have different policies. It is suggested that you find a room that is accessible to you. Also you should not disturb a class in session (make it to the room, and leave before the late bell rings, and class starts). Some teachers leave immediately and lock their doors, you will not be able to enter that room if it is locked. Make sure that it is open when you need to use your locker.
4) Can I ask for an elevator pass if I have a basement class, then right after is gym8 (nine floors, really.)
Unless you have a valid medical excuse you will not be able to obtain an elevator pass. Elevator passes are given out in the basement (i do not know the exact room).
5) I am interested in joining the string orchestra. Who do I ask? When is it going to take place? Is there an audition?
There is not audition. There are two things you can do. One is talk to our guidance counselor (which you don't have yet, so that can be an issuer). The other thing is to talk to the teachers. Orchestra is taught by Ms. Lapierre. The orchestra room is on the 9th floor west side (well actually, 9 1/2 floors. you walk up from the 8th floor on the west side, walk a bit towards the center of the 9th floor, and you will see another stair case). Band is taught by Mr. Fischer. His room is located on the 8th floor west side. There are several periods for orchestra and band. Each period represents a different level.
