Parent-Teacher Conference: February 18

PTC, No Date

The 2nd Semester Parent-Teacher Conference night will be held on Wednesday, February 18, 2015, from 5:00 to 8:30 p.m

As articulated in the Spartan Compact, parent-teacher conferences are an extremely important part of the two-way communication process between parents and teachers. Parents interested in checking on their student's progress this semester are asked to take advantage of this day. Conferences are also a place for parents to tell teachers things about their child: How he likes to learn. What she says about the class at home. How he enjoys spending free time. What she says about other students in class.

No appointments are necessary. Teachers will be alphabetically located in the Spartan and Auditorium Gyms. Parents are encouraged to bring a grade report printed from Skyward Family Access or a list of staff members they wish to visit. Please take the opportunity to meet your son or daughter's teachers, guidance counselor, dean, activity sponsor, or coach.

Language Assistance.
The school will have Arabic, Polish, and Spanish interpreters available to assist parents.

Technology Assistance.
Staff will be on-hand to assist parents in updating their SchoolMessenger/Skylert account, enrolling to receive the weekly electronic Oak Leaflet Newsletter, and creating a Family Access account for gradebook access.
