Be sure to schedule a conference time with your child’s teacher. 🧡💙

Elementary Parent-Teacher Conferences Thursday, September 10 and Thursday, September 24

CMCSS Elementary Schools will host Fall Parent-Teacher Conferences two days in September. You do not need to attend both days. These conferences are a great way to connect with your child's teacher and collaborate on ways to support learning at home and in the classroom.

➡ All elementary schools will have representatives from the Special Populations Department on-site to answer questions, provide resources, and connect families with opportunities for their child. No appointment is necessary to meet with the Special Pops team.

Wondering what you should ask during your time? Here are a few options:

🍎 What should I expect my child to learn this year in your class?
🍎 What can I do at home to ensure my child's success this year?
🍎 If my child struggles in your class, what resources are available?
🍎 How often and in what methods (textbook, notes, workbook) should I see my student practicing the information you taught at home?
🍎 How can I help prepare my student for the next grade level?

Check ParentSquare messages from your child's teacher regarding sign-up times!
