Parent-Teacher Conferences
Parent-Teacher conferences are a vital part of
a child’s educational program. They allow parents
the chance to meet with their child’s teacher(s) to
discuss a variety of issues that can have a significant
impact upon the learning process.
Generally we plan formal parent-teacher conferences
in the fall. The timing makes it convenient
to share our impressions of a child’s aptitude
(potential), achievement, socialization, motivation,
and other important factors.
It is important for parents to know that we
encourage frequent contact with the school staff.
It is impossible to overemphasize how crucial
good communication is between home and school
whether it be face-to-face, by telephone or in written
form.
The strong partnership we have been able to
forge over the years is responsible, in large part,
for the high quality of education in District 123.
Please take advantage of the parent-teacher conference
days and make the effort to stay in touch
with the school staff regularly throughout the year.
