Parent/Teacher
Conferences
October
29, 2008
Dear Parents,
Parent/Teacher Conferences will take place on
Thursday, November 20th. The afternoon
session will be from 1:00 P.M. to 3:00 P.M. and the evening
session will be from 5:30 P.M. to 8:00 P.M.
This is an opportunity for a brief discussion with the
teacher, about your child’s social and academic progress in
school. Discuss assignments, projects and tests coming up,
and ways in which you can support your child at home to help
insure his/her success. Report Cards will be distributed on
Wednesday, November 19th.
Support services personnel (guidance counselor,
psychologist, SETSS teachers, Speech teachers, O.T., P.T.
and ELL teachers) as well as all cluster teachers (art,
music, physical education, science, social studies and
technology) will all be available, should you wish to meet
with them. A list of staff members and locations will be
provided as you enter the building.
In order to accommodate all of the parents who will be
coming to speak with teachers, you will be given a specific
appointment. Please return the tear off at the bottom of
this letter, so that the classroom teacher can schedule an
appointment most convenient for you. Each conference will
last approximately 5 minutes. If you need to have a more
extended conversation with your child’s teacher, please
schedule an additional date/time for a phone conversation or
in-person meeting. In fairness to all families, we ask that
you respect the appointment times and the duration allotted
for each conference.
Open School visits will take place on November 18-20. That
will be an opportunity for you to sit in your child’s class
during morning lessons, to observe the class in action. You
will be getting a separate notice about the specific day and
time to observe your child’s class. In advance, thank you
for your cooperation in making Parent Teacher Conferences
and Open School visits orderly and productive experiences.
Sincerely,
Ronnie Feder
