Parent/ Teacher Conferences
If you haven't checked with other teachers do take time to see what others are doing during conferences. Our parents talk and come to expect the great conference format from last year's teacher.
If you feel a conference may go sideways, do let Kelly, Kate, Stacy or myself know so we can support or even be part of the session.
During Conferences please hand to parents our 'New' Title I Home-School-Compact. Also, in the Commons we will have a Title I Survey for parents to complete.
Keep our office staff informed so they can answer the phone call questions they receive.
Enjoy.
