Norman North was open for business Monday, Aug. 20, for Open House, an event where parents could further grasp the general feel of Norman North and their affiliate Moore Norman.

Norman North opened their doors for a general meet-and-greet between teachers and students

Hundreds of families showed up to the evening event held at Norman North from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. While the main objective seemed to be to visit with teachers and administrative staff at the school to find out what their kids are learning, parents also wanted to know where their kids were during the day. 

Between meeting different families, teachers also got work done while in their classrooms. Usually, they were working at their desks with sign-in sheets outside their classrooms, with very few of them standing outside waiting for the next family to approach them.

There were even several booths in the NN commons that promoted technology classes and concurrent enrollment. For example, the Moore Norman booth was open during Open House in the commons. This booth contained Moore Norman pamphlets, scholarship information, and free pencils promoting the vocational school. The booth was very busy all night long, with families learning more about what classes their kids are taking and could be taking at Moore Norman during their high school career and beyond.

One of the best things about Open House was near the front door of the commons. This was a booth where you could buy Norman North spirit shirts in whatever design you wanted, perfect for the North-High game or any other Norman North sporting event.
