Three-Way Conferences
You are invited to celebrate your child’s learning and growing at OLA!
Why Three-Way Conferences?
Research shows when the big people in a child’s life takes interest in their child’s education,
children:
● Experience increased success in their learning and growing
● Are more emotionally settled and at peace
● Witness and experience continually strengthening of relationships between home and
school
● Develop positive attitudes about school and experience increased confidence
● Benefit from working with parents who are more comfortable supporting their child’s
education
● For more information about our Assessment and Reporting Process, you are invited to

What Will We Talk About?
Conversations during Three Way Conferences will be directly linked to your child’s learning
evidence that will be available October 24th as Evidence of Learning Portfolios.
Thank you for reviewing your child’s learning progress through these portfolios.

Getting ready for Halloween
- Children are invited to wear and be in their costumes for the entire day;

- Costumes are to be appropriate for school and are not to include excessive gore, blood or weapons. Thank you for ensuring that costumes are not offensive or perpetuate a stereotype of someone's culture, gender or heritage.
- Throughout the day there will be in-class Halloween events and activities and a costume parade after our Morning Faith assembly.
- Thank you for adding a special treat or two for your child to enjoy during their in class party.
- We will not be asking families to contribute food for the class to consume.

Scholastic Book Fair
This year EVERYONE is invited as we welcome back the Scholastic Book Fair to Our Lady of the Angels School!
To help your child find the best books for them they will visit our Book Fair during class time. Students are allowed to purchase books, but the focus of our fair is enjoying a ‘book store visit’ and encouraging a love of reading. Please check out the flyer that will be sent home with your child next week to see which titles interest them. Scholastic has shared some "book trailers" where you can get a sneak peek into a few of the stories, and an easy-to-navigate link to peruse the great books available this year the fair.
We are so pleased that our Book Fair will once again be open during the 3-Way Conferences for our Family Event. This is a great opportunity for families to shop together and enter our Family Event Draw. You could win $25 worth of books for your family and $25 worth of books for your child’s classroom! For those families unable to visit the fair in person, please check out our Virtual Book Fair link, all sales here still support OLA.
We look forward to seeing you during our fair and thank you for supporting this great literary fundraiser. Mostly, thank you for believing in books and the importance reading has on your child’s future.
Book Fair Dates: October 31st & November 3rd
Family Event Evenings: November 2nd & 3rd
Location: Our Lady of the Angels School Library Learning Commons
