March Parent Teacher Conferences
March 9th, 2023
Reminder: All Students Are Dismissed at 11:20am
Parent Teacher Confernces
Parent-Teacher conferences are a valuable time for you to discuss your child and their progress. Conferences are remote, citywide, but please take this opportunity to meet with not only the classroom teacher, but all of the other teachers your child interacts with daily. As a parent, I love to hear about my child from a different perspective. I was always amazed when I would hear things that my child would say or do in school. Sometimes we see a whole other side, as you do at home. My oldest was far from quiet, but in school, that was the most used comment from her teachers.
Your child spends time in PE, art, music, perhaps in ENL small group, with their speech provider, or occupational therapist or their physical therapist Once the cross the doorway into PS 88Q, they are surrounded by so many staff who know them well. Tomorrow is your time to talk to them all! Below is a link for all the links for staff. If you haven't set up an appointment, or would like to set up an appointment with one of the non-classroom teachers, please email them directly for a time. If you are having trouble logging on, you can reach me or Ms. Lowe anytime. All families have received a time for their meeting.
