Fall Parent Teacher Conferences
October 19 & October 20, 2022
Dear Parents and Guardians,
This year, Fall Parent-Teacher Conferences will be virtual, via Zoom, beginning Wednesday, October 19th from 4:00 - 8:00 PM, and Thursday, October 20th from 12:00 noon - 1:20 PM. If you would prefer an in-person conference, please contact the specific Teacher that you would like to meet with, AFTER securing your appointment. To value everyone’s time, appointments are required for all conferences through the Meet the Teacher site. Once you have made an appointment, a confirmation email with your schedule will be sent to you.
On October 18th you will receive a reminder email from the Meet the Teacher site with the Zoom link for each of the conferences you scheduled. Please make sure to check your spam folder to ensure you do not miss this email with your meeting information.
We are utilizing an open format that will allow parents to select a 10-minute conference with individual teachers. The purpose is to have a brief conversation with your child’s teacher(s) in order to get an understanding of overall student performance. It is our goal to accommodate as many parents as possible. Therefore, if your student has a teacher for multiple periods, please only schedule one conference with that teacher. If a team determines that there is a need for a team conference, they will establish that and contact the parents directly.
Registration for both days will be scheduled by parents online. Registering for your conferences online provides maximum flexibility in tailoring a schedule to meet your needs and will give instant feedback and confirmation of your appointments. Parents will schedule appointments through this web site: Meet The Teacher. For more step-by-step information regarding the registration process please click here.
**The Meet the Teacher site link will become active at 9:00 AM this Saturday, October 8th and will remain open for the week, until 11:00 PM on Sunday, October 16th.
Spanish translation services will be available to assist with communication during conferences on both days. You will be able to select having a Spanish translator provided during the registration process.
If you have any questions about registering for a conference with your child’s teacher(s), you may contact our Registrar, Debbie Owen, via email at DOwen@barrington220.org.
Respectfully,
Mr. Aalfs
Principal
