Important Note
Parent-Teacher Conferences
Please join us on Thursday, October 17th, for Parent-Teacher conferences! We will begin at 1:30pm and end at 7:00pm. All teachers (EXCEPT 5th grade) will be in the gymnasium during this time to visit with you and answer any questions you may have. No appointment is necessary. Parents may touch base with as many teachers as they like with this setup. Special education teachers will be in the library for any parents that would like to meet. Mrs. Eggen will be working at the Book Fair in the elementary if parents would like to visit with her about the Library Trimester class.
5th Grade Conferences will look slightly different. You will receive additional information soon regarding their conferences.
Please stop at the table outside of the middle school office to pick up your student's report card.
