All BRSU Schools open their doors early in the school year so that parents and students get to spend an evening together, in their various classrooms. Parents meet teachers, teachers meet parents and parents meet other parents, all while getting a chance to hear what the kids will learn in the coming school year.
Sunderland Elementary held its Open House on Monday, September 15th. The Dorset School and Manchester Elementary Middle School followed up with Back to School nights on Thursday, September 18th. The Mettawee Community School invited families for a School Picnic that same evening. Next up will be an Open House at Flood Brook on Wednesday, September 24th. The Currier Memorial School will close the show with its traditional Harvest Open House on Thursday, October 16th.
Let the learning begin!
