Parent Teacher Conferences
Communication is an essential part of our educational program. It is very important for parents to
keep in close contact with their child’s teacher. A Parent-Teacher conference week occurs once
during the year to review a child’s academic progress and personal / social growth. During the
week, the school will follow the Early Release procedures. To schedule conferences at other times,
parents and teachers may contact one another to request a convenient time.
Please respect every child’s learning time by not going to the classroom to engage the teacher in a
conversation about your child. The teacher must be attending to and instructing all of the students in
his or her class.
