Student Led Portfolio Conferences are this Thursday. School ends at noon on both Thursday and Friday.
If you are meeting with me as the conference facilitator, you should have received a confirmation of your time slot by email, letter or a phone message. Please email me if you think you are meeting with me but have not heard back. Please let the conference teacher know ASAP if you are unable to attend.
Please remember that the conference is STUDENT led, and it is a wonderful opportunity for your student to reflect upon/share both strengths and weaknesses. Core teachers (Ms. Maionchi, Mr. Gates and myself) are unable to meet with you privately due to our conference schedules, although you are welcome to meet with elective and math teachers in their classrooms as your schedule permits.
Please come at least 15 minutes PRIOR To your conference time so that you may view the contents of your student's portfolio. Then, you and your student will meet in a classroom with a teacher who will help facilitate, but not give a formal report on his/her class.
I appreciate that you are viewing the online gradebook once a week for all classes. Please request a login from Mr. Dennis LeValley in the main office if you have not received one yet by mail.
On Monday students organized their portfolios with work, overview and progress reports from all classes. In Language Arts we are working on an individual activity using suffixes as well as a new grammar packet. It Literacy Skills students are reading from their choice book all week.
