Our school tours will be held on Oct. 22, 2019 and Oct. 29, 2019. Both will start at 8:30 am in the auditorium. No RSVP required. We will start with an overview of our school, then move on with a tour, and conclude with a Q & A and application procedures.
We will not have any other tours, so we hope that you can make it to one of the dates.

The Haunted House still needs a few volunteers! Kids and Adults!
We could use a few more actors and stagehands, and we could REALLY use a few more adults to help build on October 24th and 25th. We also have a fun key role for an adult or an older kid who’s capable of delivering several campy lines. (What a fun way for a high school kid to get their community service hours!)
Here's when we need you:
Please act now to support our Fall Family Festival. You can help in so many ways:
We are Listening is a segment of Thursday's Backpack that will be published monthly to address some of the information gathered from our May 2019 Program Evaluation Survey.

What is Open School's Social Emotional Program?
Tomorrow's Open Hearts meeting will be all about Operation Gratitude! In the coming weeks, we will have a Halloween Candy drive to send some sweetness to military personnel all over the world. Tomorrow, we will make signs to promote this project, and decorate boxes that will be used to collect the candy in every cluster and in the office.
Thank You to Coral von Zumwalt and Max Gerber for giving your time and talent in support of our Annual Giving campaign. We know the families who donated generously to Open School will appreciate these precious photos.
