Lower School Fall Conferences, Thurs., Oct. 24 & Fri., Oct. 25

Lower School Fall Conferences, Thurs., Oct. 24 & Fri., Oct. 25

Dear Lower School Parents and Guardians,  

The Lower School will host the Fall Parent/Guardian Conferences on campus on Thursday, October 24, and Friday, October 25. At the conference, your child's homeroom teacher will share important information regarding your child's progress and set learning goals for your child. Please note that no regular classes are held on these two days; they are only for conferences.

Conferences with the homeroom teacher will last 20 minutes. To make the sign-up process as easy as possible, this link allows you to sign up for a 20-minute slot that is convenient for your family - however, the link will become active on Friday, October 18, at 12 noon. Explicit directions for signing up are here. The link will also allow you to schedule conferences with the Mandarin team. If your child receives EAL support, your conference with the homeroom teacher has already been scheduled, and you should have received an email with the date and time for your meeting.

Other details about Fall Conferences:

  • Students in KA-2 do not attend these conferences.
  • Students in Grades 3-5 attend these conferences with their parents/guardians.
  • The classroom music specialists will be available on both conference days (except from 12:00 to 1:00) and warmly invite parents/guardians and students to drop by their classrooms.
  • If you wish to schedule an appointment with the Performing Arts teachers during the conference days, please contact them directly via their respective emails.
  • The art rooms and the Tech Cube will also be open on both days.
  • PE teachers are available to meet parents and guardians on either conference day in the Mandarin Library Atrium.
  • Childcare will be provided to TAS students only while you are engaged in a conference, which will take place in the Lower School Library.

To be available to as many parents as possible, Lower School counselors will offer an opportunity to reconnect and build community through an informal gathering in the Lower School Counseling Office during the Fall conferences. Please feel free to drop by the Lower School Counseling Office any time between 8:30 AM -3:00 PM on Thursday, October 24, and anytime from 8:30 AM -11:30 AM on Friday, October 25. Lower School counselors will share with you information regarding:

  • Upcoming parent education 
  • The Lower School Counseling Program   
  • Available counseling resources 

*Please note this is not meant to be an individual meeting time between counselors and parents*

We look forward to seeing you at the conferences. 

Sincerely,
