Parent/Teacher Conferences
We share information about your child's learning in all of their classes, MAP results, Raider Way feedback and reflections, and a new component this year is time travel.
Time travel is something we will continue to build on throughout the year. It is a child's ability to travel into the future and see their future selves and return back to the present to plan how they will achieve that vision. It is an important step in setting life and career goals, as well as instilling hope in our children.
I would like to hear any feedback you may have about our first time travel experience. I heard a lot of positives from teachers and parents throughout the week.
What is CLC?
"Afterschool programs are locally driven solutions that help students, families, and employers get ahead. These programs keep kids safe, inspire them to learn, and help parents keep their jobs. Students in afterschool attend school more often, do better in school, gain skills for success, and are more likely to graduate.1 But the demand for these programs far exceeds the supply. Nationwide, only 1 in 3 families who want afterschool for their children has access to programs.2" --Afterschool Alliance
There is no guarantee we will be awarded the grant for next year. The competitive grant process requires L.B. Clarke to submit an application that will be reviewed along with the applications from all other schools and organizations who apply for the grant.
The monies made available for the grant are also not guaranteed. Funding is dependent upon the funds allocated in the federal budget for after-school programming. Recently, there have been discussions to cut or reduce these funds from the federal budget for the 2018 school year.
