PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCES
THURSDAY, DEC 7, DISMISSAL AT 11:30 AM
Forms are being sent home via backpack by Monday with more information about making an appointment for this date.
Please note, it is difficult to meet with everyone in the short time teachers are given for this. Teachers are allotted a limited amount of time on this day to discuss your child's progress so we are asking that you arrive on time to your appointments. If you are late, you will most likely have to reschedule for another date. The teachers have to keep to their schedule so they will need to limit your questions. If you have other concerns that aren't able to be discussed, please send a note to your teacher to meet at another time.
In addition, if you cannot meet on December 7 during the times available (12:30–2:30 pm or 4:30-7:30 pm), please make alternate arrangements directly with your teachers. (Throughout the year, dedicated time for parents to conference with teachers is on Tuesdays after school. You can contact your child’s teacher for more information about this parent time.)
You can contact your teacher directly if you have questions, or contact our Parent Coordinator, Debby Wattenbarger, at dwattenbarger@schools.nyc.gov.
