Just a note about conferences. Your child should bring home a reminder with your conference time on it tomorrow. We will be very busy in the next 2 days getting ready to lead conferences. It is a big thing. Please know how hard your child will prepare for this day and praise him/her big time!! Please also remember that there will be several families in the room at the same time. I've noticed over the years that every family just seems to be in their own little world and it really doesn't matter. I allow this because it is the only way to let everyone take their time and not be rushed. I don't want this to be like traditional conferences where it is "wham bam thank ya sam!". I want the children involved and taking ownership of their grades, behaviors, and choices. I want parents to not feel rushed out the door and to be able to get a clearer picture of their child and what is going on during his/her school day.
Don't forget to send a pumpkin to school by Thursday morning. Thanks!
