  • Back to School Night! K-5 (Not TK)

    • This event is adults only... no students. This is your chance to see your child(ren)'s classroom, hear from their teachers, and meet other parents/guardians in your class.

    • There are TWO sessions to Back to School night (5:00 - 5:35 PM and 5:40 - 6:15 PM). The sessions take place IN THE CLASSROOMS. 

      • Have one kid at Hicks? Choose the session time that works best for you - your teacher will give the same presentation in both sessions. 

      • Have 2 kids at Hicks? Go to one classroom the 1st session, and the other classroom in the 2nd session. Or divide and conquer if you are able to have two parents/guardian's attend! 

      • Have 3+ kids at Hicks? You'll want to divide and conquer to hit all of the classrooms between the 2 sessions. If you can't make it to one - just connect with that teacher later to ask for any information that was covered. 

There will also be booths set up around campus to learn more about different programs and opportunities. 

 

Visit us at the PTO booth! Already signed up as a member? Come visit us to pick up your incentives! Haven't signed up yet? You can do it right at our booth and get your incentives on the spot.
