[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not saying "a block party" is a bad thing. I think that can build school community and spirit. But I don't see how the block party helps to connect the dots on the academic needs and supports of students for parents, which is the purpose of Back to School Night.[/quote]

Looking at the QO site linked above, I don't see any mention of a "block party" at all, so not sure where that phrase is coming from. The document they posted says:

"The night will begin with an opening session from Principal Elizabeth Thomas with special guests from the Parent Teacher Student Association, NAACP Parent Council, QO Boosters, SGA and more! Then, caregivers will go to Department Open Houses to learn more about the courses in which their students are enrolled.

Prior to BTSN, caregivers will receive a one-pager, electronically, providing specific information about their student's teachers, including links to teacher videos and the class syllabus. During BTSN, content teachers of courses offered here at QO will provide information about a student’s experience and important information about the course. Even though you will not be able to follow your student’s entire schedule, the sessions will be repeated several times throughout the evening so you can visit up to five content area discussion sessions. There will also be a table fair with information about college, career, and community opportunities, special programs at QO and clubs/organizations held at the school."

This seems fine to me, honestly.[/quote]
