Welcome to the Dragon Family!

Get ready for the next chapter!

College can be a challenging time for a student. They are entering into a new chapter of their life, with a new environment, people, role changes and expectations. As your student enters college, they will need your support, advice and sometimes even just a friend. The Dragon Family Page should serve as your guide to helping you support your newest college student during this chapter, along with resources to assist you.
