Online 2016 Welcome Packet

Prior to prefectural orientation we have asked all incoming ALTs to read the online welcome to Niigata packet.
This packet was created by JETs for JETs.  It is impossible to fit everything you need to know about living in Niigata into one day of orientation. So, for anything we didn’t cover at Prefectural Orientation please refer to this. For fast access on certain topics use Control + F to use the find command.
