Dear
House B Families,
We
are approaching the end of our first trimester of the school year,
and it is already time for our first round of Student-Led Parent
Conferences! Educational research tells us that children benefit
greatly from having meaningful conversations about their learning
with important adults in their lives. We hope that you can attend a
Student-Led Parent Conference where your child will present to you a
portfolio of artifacts of his or her learning – work from each
class that he or she has thoughtfully selected to demonstrate
learning and growth.
In
addition to presenting artifacts of academic growth, your child will
discuss their reflections on their successes and challenges in each
academic area, and the goals they are proposing for the second
trimester. These goals encompass lifelong learning skills and the
Habits of Mind students are striving to achieve in our Middle School.
Those habits are: flexible thinking, preparedness, citizenship,
persistence, and precision.
For
your convenience, we are scheduling conferences on the evening of
Tuesday, November 19th and Thursday, November 21st
from 4:00PM to 7:00PM. Please be aware that this is not a
traditional parent-teacher conference, so every teacher may not visit
you during the conference session.
We
look forward to seeing you!
Sincerely,
Karen

Francine Lemnah - Math
