The Graduating Class Teams are designed to enhance the academic and social-emotional support for all students throughout their high school journey. Each graduating class i.e. Class of 2025 will have a dedicated team of administrators, adviser chairs, and student services liaisons who will closely follow and support students during their entire high school experience. These teams will accompany students throughout their entire high school journey, fostering continuity of support and gaining a deeper understanding of each student's unique strengths and challenges.

The Graduating Class Teams strive to strengthen the essential connection between school, family, and students. The Adviser Program at New Trier has always emphasized this connection, and with the introduction of these teams, students and families will have multiple staff members providing consistent and targeted support, throughout a student’s high school career.

Much like with the current Adviser system, the Northfield Campus will have a slightly different structure, with the two Northfield Adviser Chairs remaining at that campus each year, while the Assistant Principal and most liaisons will move with the graduating class all four years. 

The Graduating Class Teams consist of the following members and positions:

• Assistant Principal: The Assistant Principal play a vital role in coordinating the team's efforts and ensuring effective support for all students.
• Adviser Chairs: Two Adviser Chairs are part of each team. These experienced individuals will collaborate with Advisers to better understand students' needs as they progress through high school.
• GCT Admin Assistants: The GCT Admin Assistants are essential team members and collaborate with the GCT to provide crucial administrative support, ensuring seamless communication and coordination.
• MTSS Coaches: The coaches work closely with the team to implement and track targeted interventions and academic support for students who may need additional assistance.
• Post-High School Counseling Liaison: This liaison focuses on guiding students and families through post-graduation planning, including college and career preparation.
• School Psychologist Liaison: The School Psychologist liaison contributes valuable insights to support students' mental well-being and academic success.
• Social Work Liaison: A dedicated liaison from the Social Work department is part of the team, providing expertise and assistance in addressing students' social and emotional needs.
• Special Education Liaison: The Special Education liaison ensures that appropriate accommodations and resources are provided for students followed up and Individualized Education Plan.

At New Trier High School, we believe in the power of community and collaboration, and the Graduating Class Teams embody these principles. We are here to support, celebrate successes, and help students navigate challenges.
