Open House is planned for Aug. 28 from 6 p.m. to 8:35 for parents. The event begins in the Dale E. Graham Auditorium, then for the second part of the evening, parents will be dismissed to attend their child’s classes.

The introduction will begin with a performance by the Ambassadors, a welcome by PTO President Amy Kline and instructions from Principal John Williams. “It is a wonderful night for us. We do (Open House) early in the year so that parents can meet the teachers,” Williams said.

According to Jan Brown, organizer of the Open House, parents will be guided through the school by NHS students and maps. Each class will last ten minutes with eight minute passing periods.

Counselors, college and career resource counselors and administration will be available to answer any questions that parents may have.

Brown said that often the evening can be stressful for parents but she said that she likes to remind them that, “You can do it.”
