Spring Conferences – May 7th and 8th 

Spring conferences will be held with your child’s homeroom teacher! The official days of Spring Conferences are May 7th and 8th. These conferences are going to be held in person. 

These conferences will be different, they will be student led. Your kiddo is the star and they are going to present to you their portfolio they will be creating here in class! Each student will use your conference time to share with you their presentation worked on in class. Their presentation will be a reflection on the year, things they are proud of, things they think they need to work on, things they think they are good at – bottom line THEIR thoughts and reflections for the year. There will be three families at a time and us teachers will be walking around to help and guide – but this is all about your kiddo and we are more there to listen and guide only if necessary! The kiddos are going to be working hard in class to prepare, so the more you support the better for the kiddos 😊.  

Please sign up below for the time that works best for you. These are 15 minutes long with three families at a time so please be on time since they run back to back. We look forward to you coming in and seeing your child’s progress and how proud they are to show off their hard work and their reflections for the year! If you are unable to schedule a conference, your child will bring home all of the work they prepared so you will not miss out on their wonderful achievements and future goals.

Conferences will be closed out Monday, April 28th!

*If you have Ms. Meiborg you can sign up for HER and your child’s HOMEROOM teacher. Ms. Meiborg’s kiddos are the ONLY ones who get to do this!
