We finished our first full week of school.  Friday, I introduced centers for the first time.  They were very excited, and most of them did a fantastic job!  Write the Room was the favorite choice!! 
Our school does Open House before school begins to get the students acclimated to the room and Back-to-School Night for the parents about a week after school begins.  It's a lot to plan for, but it seems to work well on both fronts!  The students had 2 books finished to give to their parents for Back-to-School.  Both were from Kindergarten Smiles:  Monster Rules and I See Monsters (color words).
We're having a great start to kindergarten!
