Also, a reminder for you parents of Seniors: Ms. Bemus will be holding a Financial Aid Night meeting in the High School Library beginning at 7 pm on Monday, Oct 21. So you can come in for some conferences and stick around to get a jump start on figuring out financial aid.
You should have received a letter from school last week about Parent/Teacher Conferences. Those conferences will be held from 4-8 p.m. on Thursday, Oct 17 and Monday, Oct 21. The letter also may have included a list of teachers who are specifically requesting a conference with you. Please consider this message my personal invitation to each one of you to attend Parent/Teacher conferences, even if you don't get a specific request from one of your child's teachers. Historically our high school parent-teacher conferences have been poorly attended. That really is a too bad because parental involvement is a key to academic achievement for all students. Conferences are a great opportunity to get in to the school, see where your child is attending classes every day, and meet his/her teachers. I think sometimes parents think conferences are necessary only if their child is having problems at school, and that certainly is a good reason to attend conferences. But every student benefits from a positive relationship between parents and their teachers and conferences are a great opportunity to build that relationship. I know everyone has busy schedules but I hope you can find time to come see us on one or both of our upcoming conference dates. No appointments are necessary. Just drop in to see some or all of your child's teachers on those two days. I'll be in my office or around the building during conferences as well so I hope to see you then.
