Halley families, it is time for our annual Back to School Night! This is a wonderful opportunity to meet your student's teachers, see their classrooms, and learn about the exciting year ahead.

Date: September 17th
Time: 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM

To make it easy for families with multiple students, we will be running two identical sessions:

SESSION 1 (6:00–6:50 PM): Meet Your Teacher & Class Visit OR attend the Title 1 Information Session (providing details on parent involvement and school programs).

SESSION 2 (7:00–7:50 PM): Repeat of Session 1 Presentations OR Title 1 Information Session (second opportunity).

Please note: Families have two opportunities to attend the Title 1 information session, so you can choose the session that fits your schedule best!

We Can't Wait to See You!
