On the first Saturday:

Between 8:45-9:20 a.m. on Sept. 24 come to our information table on the first floor of the Art and Journalism Building near the Ball State Bookstore. There you will receive information about your teacher and classroom assignments. A brief information session for parents will be held at 9:40 a.m.

We are anticipating parking to be a little challenging on this first Saturday morning.  Parking is free in meter spots on Saturdays, but if the AJ lot is full, please see this map and consider parking in the R2 lot to the north.
