Oak Mountain HS holds open house

Oak Mountain High School held an open house to showcase its afterschool activities and to inform parents about its classes.

The open house kicked off with a dinner hour, where attendees were able to watch a sneak peek of this year’s talent show. Several students sang, and one student danced.

Students who are members of the Oak Mountain Masters helped host the event, passing out maps and answering questions. Junior Caleb Van Geffen said students can benefit from attending open houses by connecting with the school.

“The best thing is to build relationships with your teachers and faculty,” Van Geffen said. “This open house especially, we have so much going on. You get a taste of the whole school.”

The open house also served as a way for each of the grade levels to obtain points for homecoming week, which starts on Sept. 28.

At the open house, extracurriculars and clubs had booths in the commons to allow parents and students to answer questions. There were also various sessions in the classrooms which covered academic classes.
