Meet the Teacher
2023-08-24 16:30 - 18:00 (America/New_York) | Penny Road Elementary, 10900 Penny Road, Cary, North Carolina, 27518
We will be holding our Meet the Teacher event for first through fifth graders! Meet the Teacher is a drop-in event where students can see their classroom, meet their teacher, and drop off school supplies. In order to reduce traffic both inside classrooms and in the parking lot, we are staggering arrival this year by last name.

4:30 – 5:15: Students with last names beginning with A-L

5:15 – 6:00: Students with last names beginning with M-Z

If you are unable to attend during your assigned time slot or if your family has multiple last names, just come when you are able. However, we do ask all who are able to adhere to their time slots to help with crowding.
