Purpose of Open House:
Open House is typically a night where students and parents can take a walk in the building, drop off supplies, pick up schedules and orient to the classroom before school starts. In addition, important forms are normally picked up and dropped off and families purchase the Spirit T-shirt for the year.
Due to the current circumstances, we are modifying our Open House approach to involve limited groups at one time and travel in the building. The main purposes for attending the Open House in this format is listed below under each grade level along with specific instructions.
