 At our school the orientation is more to see and get a "feel" for the classroom, briefly meet the teacher, and fill out paperwork. On Back to School Night the teachers from each grade give a presentation about the curriculum, where resources are located online, class rules/discipline, etc.

I imagine it's different in different schools, though (how's that for the generic answer LOL... but true!)

How I would look at it is that an informal meet and greet doesn't really have an agenda but more of a "get to know you" kinda thing whereas the formal open house is more structured.
