OMS Fall Conferences
Thursday, October 12th or Tuesday, October 17th | 3:30-6:30
6th Grade Conference Information
The 6th grade teachers are transitioning to an Advisor-led conference style this year. This will help ensure you get the voice of each core teacher in one session instead of timing out 4+ conferences. Specifically, our science and social studies teachers will be able to provide information on each student for each parent without running out of time slots.
If you are a parent of a 6th grader, you will just sign up for ONE conference slot (about 15 minutes) with your child's ADVISOR. You will see all 6th grade teachers as an option, but ONLY SIGN UP FOR THE ADVISOR.
7th and 8th Grade Conference Information
Please reference your child's schedule and decide who you would like to schedule a conference with. You can schedule with whichever core teacher you would like to.
Conferences will be 8 minutes long with a 2 minute transition time.
Who Do I Need To Meet With?
6th Grade Parents: You will only meet with your child's Advisory teacher. They will update you on all core classes.
7th and 8th Grade Parents: You can meet with whichever core teachers you would like to.
