Parent Teacher Conferences will be held in the HS Commons on Thursday, Feb. 15, from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., and from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. **Those coming for evening slots should plan to arrive early to find parking since there is high school basketball game the same night.
Middle School Parent Teacher Conferences are student-led, which allows our scholars to take ownership over their own learning. In this format, students articulate their areas of strength and growth to their parents and teachers, using work samples, and other evidence during their 20-minute time slots. Students should bring their laptop (devices will be available if needed), IC login information, and their Google Classroom codes.
During conferences, parents will arrive at the HS Commons and rotate through visits with their student’s core and elective teachers for a total of 20 minutes (about five minutes per teacher) and then talk with math teachers for up to 10 minutes. Tables will be set up in the Commons and labeled by grade. Please sit at any of the open tables labeled for your student’s grade. If one is not available, please wait for the next available spot. Once at the table, you will see flags for each of the core subjects (LA, Science, and Social Studies) and a pole. If you would like to speak to a teacher, simply place the corresponding flag onto the pole. Teachers will be monitoring the tables and will come to speak to you when their flag is raised. Math and Elective teachers will be sitting at designated tables throughout the Commons.
If your student has a high school math class, please proceed to the high school gym, where you can meet on a “walk in” basis.
Sign-ups open on Thursday, Feb. 1, and close at the end of the day Tuesday, Feb. 13. There are two separate middle school conference sign-ups: one for the student’s core teachers (language arts, social studies, science, and electives) and one for your student’s math teacher.
Note: Once the SignUpGenius links are closed, parents will need to reach out directly to their student’s teachers to make other arrangements. If a conference time is missed, makeup appointments will not be offered since conference times are limited. If more time is needed with a teacher, please email the teacher to set up a separate meeting.
