Ready for Conferences?

I enjoyed meeting with you on Tuesday for Open House.  As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact me.


Please be sure to return the 4th Grade Fall Conference form that was in your child's Tuesday folder this week. Please check 4 areas of strength and 4 areas of growth for you child.  This will provide an opportunity for you and I to work collaboratively to set goals for this school year.  It is a team effort!

​Thank you for setting aside some time to come in and meet one on one about your child.  It does take us all working together for sure!  Please know I have many conferences to complete each day.  I will have to respect all parents' time and will not be able to go past the 20 mins.  If your conference is scheduled for in the morning at 7:00am, I will meet you at the front doors by the office at 6:55 to let you in.  If you don't remember the time you reserved or if you have not reserved a time, please contact me.
