Open house is this Thursday, Sept. 6, 2018, here at Niles West from 6:00-8:00 pm. Open house is an annual event where parents come to the school at night and get to meet their children’s teachers and experience their normal school day schedule. The teachers are staying late after school, so that means students will have a late arrival at 10:10 a.m.

“Open house is great because my parents get to meet my teachers and get a good idea about the things I’ll be doing throughout the school year,” junior Andrew Pabst said.

Open house is important to attend so parents get to see what is happening at school and the opportunity to meet teachers is beneficial to both the parent and the teacher.

“It’s kinda cool how my mom and dad can walk my schedule and get a taste of what my day consists of,” sophomore Kyle Gibson said.
