Trion Elementary School is reminding families that orientation and Meet the Teacher events will take place this week as students prepare to return to the classroom.

On Tuesday, July 28, a Parent Orientation for all Pre-K students and newly accepted Trion Elementary students will begin at 5 p.m. in the Trion Middle School Gym. School officials say this is an information session for parents only.

On Wednesday, July 29, families are invited to Meet the Teacher, a drop-in event where students can visit their classrooms, meet their teachers and bring school supplies. Meet the Teacher hours are 3 to 5 p.m. for Pre-K through first grade and 4 to 6 p.m. for second through fifth grades.

The Kona Ice truck will also be on site. Families are encouraged to visit classrooms before purchasing a frozen treat.

The first day of classes for Trion City Schools is Thursday, July 30.
