Students and parents in Caldwell County are preparing for the beginning of the upcoming school year, and the local school district has planned open houses for all of the schools to welcome students back into the buildings.
The school year officially begins for students to enter the classrooms on Wednesday, August 13th, but the teachers and staff have been busy planning for opening day. Each school has planned its open houses to invite both students and parents to visit the school and meet the teachers.
The Primary School houses kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd graders, and School Secretary Holly Thompson invites everyone to their open house.
