The open house format allows you to check in with teachers as your schedule allows during the three-hour window. Every 20 minutes (4pm, 4:20pm, 4:40pm, etc.) teachers will share a brief 5-7 minute presentation with those who are in the room. We recommend reviewing your child’s schedule on ParentVue and writing down room numbers and teacher names.

On Tuesday we will share a list of teachers who are floating and identifying what classrooms you can find them in. All other teachers would be available in the room assigned to your child’s schedule.

We will also have an optional 25-minute New Parent Presentation at 4:30pm, 5:30pm, and 6:30pm in the cafeteria presented by Student Services. These presentations will cover ParentVue, Attendance, Standard/Advanced Diploma, Student Services Introductions, Administration Overview, College and Career Center, Student Activities Overview, Late Bus Days, Advisory Rotation, and Q&A.
Juniors and seniors who have a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher are invited to apply to West Potomac High School's National Honor Society.
