Student Led Conferences, Report Cards, and Award Ceremonies

Dear parents,

It is that time of year again when students receive report cards. Students will receive report cards on January 28th. Some additional information will be included in the report card this term, including retention letters for those students below grade level (77%) or whose tests grades put them at risk for possibly failing the End of Grade Test. If you receive a retention letter, please sign up for a time to meet for a conference (conference times attached to the retention letter).

Awards Ceremony for Grades 5-9 will occur on January 28th at 9:00 am. Your child's homeroom teacher will inform you if your child will receive an award this quarter.

Please keep in mind that student led conferences will occur this Wednesday, January 26th for 6B and 7B in the new Science Lab (classroom closest to the road). This is an opportunity for your child to show you what he or she has learned this quarter. Although I will be in the room to facilitate and answer questions, student led conferences are not intended for parent-teacher conferences. Please schedule a separate conference time if this is your intention. I welcome you in advance to attend the Student Led conference and to visit our new Science classroom!
