Searching for your child’s door to the future? Attending area Open Houses can make your choice (a little) easier.
“It’s not like it was when I went to school. I attended the school down the street and that was it!” You know you’ve said it… or at least thought it! The increasing number of school options now open to our kids is a great opportunity for them, but can be a bit overwhelming - and frustrating when we can’t find the info we need to make the best decision for our child. Even simply finding out when all the Open Houses are scheduled can be a challenge!
To help us all save some time (so we can read through all those school flyers!)… we’re excited to share our new Open House Roundup. A handy listing of all the Open House events in the Lubbock area that allow new students and incoming students to take a peek at what each school offers.
It’s a great opportunity to see each school with their best foot forward and to perhaps uncover areas of interest that your child may not have considered before. And because there are changes made to the school curriculum every year, it’s the perfect chance to see what is truly offered at the school – just because at program was offered at a school this year, don’t assume it will be offered next year!
Plus it’s a fun way to get our kids excited about making a big move to a new school (even if it’s not next year) and see the real personality of other schools in the area.
Be sure to check back frequently for updates - or for up-to-the-minute information, checkout the
Open House Roundup tab on LubbockForKids.com where you can search by your child’s age, view in calendar format and create your own custom calendar with your favorite selections! Did we miss your Open House? Share it with us here and we’ll add it to the list!
