Virtual Parent Teacher Conferences

This year our parent-teacher conferences will be held virtually.  Conferences are scheduled for Tuesday, November 10th from 5pm until 8pm and Wednesday, November 11th from 3:10pm to 6:10pm.

Please follow the link below to sign up for conferences with your child’s teacher(s).

Due to the limited number of conference time slots available for seventh and eighth grade students within our conference timeframe, we ask that you sign up to meet with teachers if your child is struggling in a class or you have questions for the teacher regarding the class. If your child is succeeding in the virtual setting in his or her classes and you do not have questions for the teacher,  please continue to monitor progress regularly through Parent Connect and reach out to teachers through email as needed.  Parent and teacher communication is an extremely important component of student success. We encourage you to have regular, open dialogue with teachers as needed.
