Columbia Families,
We are ecstatic to begin the 2015-2016 school year! We will celebrate a great start to the year with an Open House on Tuesday August 25th. This is our third annual Open House. The format we will use is not the same as last year and allows you as parents to connect with all your student’s teachers and sit in on some important information sessions. This will be an extremely informative event, fast paced, and well worth the time to initiate solid communication with your student’s teachers and learn what is new for this year.
The schedule* for the evening is below. Fortunately this year you have flexibility to go where you want when you want within the session windows of time. We will have 13 sessions, all of them starting at the quarter of an hour (i.e. 6:00pm, 6:15pm, 6:30pm, 6:45pm). Each session will be 10 minutes with a 5 minute question/answer travel period. Please bring your student (as they will help you get from class to class). If they are unable to attend we will provide maps and have a lot of people to help you with directions in the hallway.
At the end of the evening we will have a wrap up assembly at 7:15pm in our auditorium to briefly summarize the special sessions (for those who may not have been able to catch a certain session) and be available for question and answer on any clarifications you might have from the evening. Like last year we will be handing out door prizes for those who visit your student’s teachers and attend the 7:15pm assembly. We will also have food vendors available all night selling food if you are on the go and need some dinner.
Please plan to attend this important evening.
Have a super day!!!! See you at the CAT BLAST this Saturday 5pm to 7pm in our front yard area!!!!
