Parent-Teacher Conferences

Parent-Teacher Conferences are coming up on October 6-7.   Conferences are a time to work with your child's teacher and look at the progress your student is making, as well as areas to reinforce.  Teachers will be sending home sign-up information this week for all families.   Conferences are one of the most valuable opportunities to learn more about your child as a student and ways to support their academic and social development.
