Description:

Brennen Elementary School hosts a back-to-school Meet & Mingle event for all Brennen families. Children are welcome to attend! This event allows families the opportunity to meet their child’s teacher and bring in the requested school supplies for the classroom before school begins.

OPEN HOUSE

Date & Time:

Thursday, September 7th from 5:30 PM to 7:05 PM

Description:

Open House is a parent only event. Parents will hear from their child’s teacher, learn what to expect in the school year ahead, and find out ways to support their child’s learning.  If parents would like to schedule a conference to discuss their individual child with their teacher, please contact their teacher.

In an effort to lessen the congestion of everyone arriving to Brennen at the same time, we are using staggered sessions.  This will also help accommodate families who may need to visit multiple teachers.
