Principal's Note - Oct 12, 2009

Dear Salmon Bay Families:

Conference dates are coming right around the corner. Your home room teacher will be asking you to sign up for a conference one of the 3 days before the Thanksgiving break. There will also be some evening times if needed.
The curriculum nights we did this month are designed to give you a better idea of the content in your student’s class, and how the year will progress. In elementary, the conferences are an opportunity for you to talk with your teacher about the individual progress of your student, and to ask questions about how things are going. In middle school, conferences are student-led and teacher supervised. This gives the students an opportunity to review their own progress, to inform you of how they are doing, and in the process give you further specifics to continue that conversation with them throughout the year.

I’m sure you realize the many ways you can be involved in your student’s school experience, and conferences are one of the best ways, so be sure to sign up for your date.

Take care,

Jodee
