The Parent/Teacher Partnership
Communication between teachers and parents is an important part of supporting students and encouraging success. When parents and teachers work together, they can help students be successful and comfortable in school.
Parents - To prepare for the conference, you can check your student’s grades and attendance on the District’s Infinite Campus website. You can also ask your student about school – what classes are exciting and challenging, what classes are more difficult?
Students are welcome to attend the conference with the parent/guardian.
Also, consider preparing a list of questions to ask your student's teachers.
Questions you might want to ask the teacher
-What is my student learning?
-What can my student do to improve?
-What are my student's strengths and challenges in the classroom?
-What can I do at home to help my student learn?
