Elementary parents, our Student-Led Conferences are coming up on
Wednesday, February 11
*New this year* – Student-led Conferences are an instructional day, WITH a regular school day schedule.
From 3:15 pm to 6:00 pm, Elementary students will have the opportunity to come to school with their parents to present work samples and share their progress this year at our Student-Led Conferences. This learning event is mandatory for students and families, as it is a formal way that we communicate the learning that is happening. During each 20-minute conference, students have an opportunity to showcase their learning and reflect on their goals for the remainder of the year.
These conferences are excellent occasions for students to:
- engage families in richer, more transparent conversations about their progress and learning,
- take responsibility and ownership for their learning by involving them in goal-setting and assessment processes,
- increase their accountability and autonomy concerning academics and their habits of work and learning, and
- strengthen student verbal communication and critical thinking skills.

We look forward to seeing each of you there!
