Rescheduled: Parent-Teacher Conferences
This is a makeup date for our annual November event that was rescheduled when winter weather occured.
Case parents and families are encouraged to speak with the children's teachers in brief five minutes conversations. Conferences are first-come, first-served. Schedules and report cards will be available in guidance beginning at 6 p.m.

Semester I 21CLE report
The high school's 18th 21CLE report was published yesterday, documenting our ongoing journey to help students progress in meeting the school's 21st Century Learning Expectations (21CLE).
Individually, I emailed each teacher and student with this data.
Each course reports out on at least one of these areas via the Term II report card. How your teachers assess students is documented in the comment section on the digital report card.
Teachers collaborate within departments to decide which three assessments during a semester will be used to gauge progress in any specific discipline. Students could ask their teachers what specific assessments were used to determine this.
Based on the specific rubrics in each expectations, students may also self-assess to see where they would rate themselves, then compare the reflection to their report card. Any disconnect creates an opportunity for teacher and student to have a deeper face-to-face discussion.
Students can also gauge where they are in specific disciplines in comparison with their YOG cohort. The next reflection would be to see how their cohort compares to others in the school.
Both the granular and cohort data are conversation starters for students with their teachers as well as what can students do to achieve the next level of progress or remain in a positive trajectory forward.
