Parent/Student/Teacher Conferences Parent/Student/Teacher conferences will be held on Wednesday, October 22nd from 3:30-8:00pm and Thursday, October 23rd from 9:00am - 2:00 pm and then again from 3:00pm - 7:30pm. Teachers will be in the main gym for conferences on Wednesday and for the second session on Thursday. Teachers will be in their classrooms during the first session (9:00 am- 2:00 pm) on Thursday. There will be a "check-in" table located in the hallway leading to the main gym. We ask that all parents and students stop at the check-in table when you first arrive for conferences. At the check-in table you will receive a copy of the students schedule and current grades. This year our sixth grade House 1 (6-1)core teachers are experimenting with student led conferences. If your child is in this House you should have received information relating to the specifics of this schedule. These teachers will be in the Library for conferences. On Wednesday school is scheduled as normal. There is no school scheduled for Thursday, October 23rd or Friday, October 24th.
Teacher Meal At Parent Teacher Conferences we like to provide food for our teachers. If you would be willing to provide a dessert or a salad, please contact the main office or Mr. Kramer. The main office number is 552-4700 or e-mail Mr. Kramer at pkramer@dbqschools.org. Thank you for your support.
