Parent Teacher Conferences
February conferences are just around the corner.
- February 9: 7:00-8:00 a.m. & 3:50-6:50 p.m.
- February 11: 3:50-6:50 p.m.
We invite all families to participate to hear updates about their child's progress. Sign-ups will be Sign-Up Genius HERE or below. If you feel that you have had strong communication with your child's teacher and do not need an update on their progress, that's ok too.
At this point in the school year, we would like the opportunity to meet with both parents together to discuss your child's progress. While we understand that there might be extenuating circumstances that can make this difficult, we find that when parents can equally participate in the same conversation about their child, it leads to positive relationships and outcomes for the child. Please contact Mrs. Yearling at yearlings@oasd.org if you need to discuss alternate conference arrangements.
- Spring conferences will be 15 minute increments, starting at 3:50.
- All conferences will be held via zoom. Zoom links for all teachers will be sent via email prior to conferences.
- We ask that students with two-family households schedule a conference time together to speak with your child's teacher.
- If you would like to schedule a conference with specialists such as our Music, Art, PE or STEM teachers, you may schedule a time via Sign Up Genius.
- If you would like to schedule a specific conference with Mrs. Yearling or a student services staff member, please email them directly for a conference time.
Pick Up Reminders
Also, please use your name signs for pick up, it helps us to to more efficiently get students to the correct vehicles. If you need a new name sign, please reach out to Ms. Childs at childsc@oasd.org.
MAP Testing
We have scheduled our school-wide MAP testing from February 1st through Februrary 4. Winter MAPS testing helps us monitor the progress students have made thus far. For more information check out the Family Guide. All students in grades 5K-4th grade will take a reading and math test.
If you can avoid planned time off of school during these 4 days, that would be greatly appreciated. Students always feel more relaxed when they can take the math and reading assessments with their class.
If your child is ill or needs to miss school during these days, please let us know as much in advance as possible so we can schedule a time the week before or after to get the testing done.
Valentine's Day
Teachers will be communicating individual plans for their classroom celebrations. No treats will be brought in by families. Any individually package, nut-free treats that are shared will be purchased by the teacher. If your valentine has a little treat included, please make sure it is nut-free.
