Back to School Night: What to Expect

Optional Family Mix and Mingle. You can meet and mingle with other families in your child's grade. This is an excellent opportunity to exchange contact information and build connections. You can also visit the PTA and various partnership tables stationed throughout the hallways.

Grade Level Presentation. Join other families from your child's grade for an informative presentation on expectations and curriculum updates for the upcoming year. This will take place in the gym, media center, or cafeteria (depending on grade level).

Classroom Visitation. Finally, you can stop by your child's classroom for 15 minutes to meet their teacher and see their learning space. Please note that this is not a time for individual parent-teacher conferences. You can schedule a separate meeting with the teacher at a later date or wait until fall parent-teacher conferences are scheduled for late November.

Optional GT Presentation (For grades 3,4,5 only). We invite you to attend a special presentation to learn more about the HCPSS Gifted and Talented program. You will hear about the GT Math curriculum, Curriculum Extension Units (CEUs), and seminar opportunities.

A quick note for families: Please be aware that we will not have any childcare or planned activities for students during this event. While you are welcome to bring your children, please plan to supervise them. We apologize for any inconvenience.
