Back to School Night, Thursday, September 4th

6:30 pm – 9:00 pm

Important Notes:

Students are asked to fill out their schedule and give it to their parents.

Back to School Night is for parents and guardians. Students are NOT encouraged to attend.

Plan to arrive by 6:15 pm., because school parking lots fill up quickly. Leave additional time for parking.

Overflow parking is available at Moore Street Baptist Church, 1408 W. Leight St., one block past Sugar Shack.

Parents should report to the school auditorium no later than 6:30 p.m. for the first PTSA meeting of the year. A welcome, maps, and directions for the evening will be provided. Students should provide their schedules to their parents to follow.

Each class session will last for ten minutes, and a bell will signal the transition to the next class. Parents will have five minutes between classes.

Teachers will be providing specific information about their classes, not about individual students.

Parent-teacher conferences will take place on November 3rd, during which time parents may discuss their child’s progress. More information regarding these conferences will be forthcoming.

Class Schedule (this may be revised depending on the time needed for the welcome and PTSA meeting):
