PARENT/ FAMILY - TEACHER CONFERENCES:
In an effort to improve the Parent/ Family-Teacher Conferences and to save time for both parents and staff, CRLS has implemented an on-line Parent-Teacher Conference pre-registration. To be fair to families without computer access we will split the time for on-line registration and walk-in time.
We are also happy to inform you that we have added extra hours to make sure that all parents have the opportunity to meet with teachers. There will be added morning conferences and afternoon conferences. In order to implement the extra hours we will have a delayed opening and an early release for students. The schedule is as follows.
- On Tuesday, October 23 from 8:10 AM to 11:10 AM- will be on-line pre-registration only (this will be a delayed opening. Students report to school at 11:12 AM)
- On Tuesday, October 23 from 6-8 PM -Walk-in time. No pre-registration.
- On Thursday, October 25 from 12:30 to 3:30 PM -will be on-line pre-registration only (students will be released at 11:08)
On-line registration will open on Friday, October 12, 2012 at 8 a.m. and will close on October 24, 2012. Here is the link:
