Hickory Bend's Open House was held on September 25, 2007. Families were invited to Hickory Bend to participate in several activities. The evening started off in the gym with staff introductions and a presentation by Mrs. Bragg, HB principal. Parents were then asked to visit their child's classroom for a presentation by the teacher as well as visit the Scholastic Book Fair.
Classroom Teachers worked hard developing a resource folder that was given to each parent. Folders included classroom information and tips on helping students succeed. The staff at HB realizes the importance of good home-school communication, and enjoyed having the opportunity to meet their students' families. We at HB also know that families that read together succeed together! The Scholastic Book Fair was a great opportunity for families to increase the number of books in their home.
Seventy-one percent of HB families were represented at this year's Open House. The HB staff was pleased to see each family in attendance, and hopes to increase participation in this important activity next year. Thank you to Mrs. Bragg, the HB staff and all of the HB families for making this year's Open House a success.
