We are excited to welcome you into our new school on Saturday for Open House. Please remember to visit the Check-In station upon your arrival to pick up your schedule and receive your Open House packet. Please also check over the agenda (here) for more information about where to go for the event.
We’ve been getting a lot of great questions about the event, so we compiled this handy list of FAQ’s to provide some more info on the event:
Where should I Park?
You are welcome to park in any lot on the UA Little Rock campus with the exception of Reserved Lot 5 (the lot directly across from EHS building).
When can I get my child’s schedule?
Schedules will be distributed from the Check-In table before entering the building. Look for the balloons!
What if I can’t attend? How will I get my child’s schedule?
We hope to see you there! If you can't attend, we will send home copies of student schedules at the first day of classes. All handouts and information are online and on the mobile app.
When can I see inside the building and meet the teachers?
To ensure safety and allow everyone the opportunity to tour the buildings comfortably, we are staggering entry into the building by the grade level of your student.
- 12th grade: 9:30-10:15
- 11th grade: 10:15-11:00
- 10th grade: 11:00-11:45
Can I arrive earlier than my assigned time?
Sure! Our resource fair will run for the duration of the event in the courtyard behind the high school building. If you arrive early, check out the tables there to learn about many of our programs and pick up information about parking passes, Rock Region Metro, and more. We will also be holding “blue zone” tours every 15 minutes.
When will lockers go on sale?
We will not be selling lockers at Open House, but they will be available for purchase through MySchoolBucks beginning Monday, August 14th. You can find the link to mySchoolBucks on the website or by clicking (here)
Will we get to see other areas of campus that students will use?
Yes! We will be offering “Blue Zone” (areas of campus where that eStem students may access) every 15 minutes.
Where can I get nurses forms?
Nurses forms along with other important forms (such as parking passes, free/reduced lunch, buss passes, etc.) can be picked up at the resource fair.
Will merchandise (t-shirts, hoodies, etc) be available for purchase?
Yes! Our spirit store will be open for business throughout the event. You will also be able to order shirts at the event if we run out of your size.
I pre-ordered a shirt at family orientation, when will I get it?
Pre-orders have arrived and will be packaged for you to pick up at open house.
