Parent-teacher conference days are conducted mid way through each report card period. These conferences are scheduled in the evening or on early dismissal days. The following dates have been scheduled for this year:
- October 4, 2012, 5:00–8:00 pm
- December 14, 2012, beginning at 12:45 pm
- February 28, 2013, 5:00–8:00 pm
- May 17, 2012, beginning at 12:45 pm
Each teacher develops his or her own schedule for conferences using a sign-up sheet posted on or near the classroom door a few days before parent-teacher conference day. If a parent is unable to come to the classroom to sign up for a conference, then the parent may request a conference by sending a note or email to the teacher.
Progress reports and report cards are one vehicle teachers use to communicate about each student’s progress. The progress report is issued midway through each quarter and report cards are issued at the end of each quarter. This information can be used to help students understand how they are doing in various subjects. Parents should use this information to help their child continue their success or identify ways to improve
Grade-level teachers outline the grading procedures for their students at the beginning of the year and then throughout the year as needed for specific assignments. Teachers provide information regarding grading procedures at the annual PTO sponsored Back to School Night.
