Parent/Teacher Conferences are Oct. 22 and 23, and they will look a little different this year. Parents will receive a conference sign up link on Thursday, Oct. 8 from their child's first core class teacher of the day. This teacher will be your conference contact and will provide input from all of the student's teachers. All conferences are limited to 10 minutes.
For students receiving special education services, the case manager will be your conference contact.
We are encouraging Zoom/Phone conferences, but we will have limited availability for in person conferences as well. Once a parent completes the online form, teachers will send a Zoom link for those opting for a Zoom conference.
For parents requesting a phone conference, teachers will call the phone number parents provide in the conference sign up form at their designated time.
Elective/PE/Music teachers will be available by appointment. Please contact those teachers directly if you would like to set up a conference.
For parents requesting an in person conference, please adhere to the following guidelines.
-Limited to only the parent/guardian.
-Masks are required.
-Remain 6 feet from other individuals in the building.
