PARENT-TEACHER/PARENT-PRINCIPAL CONFERENCES

Parent-teacher conferences are a means of establishing a cooperative relationship, which is vital for the steady growth of the child. Parent-teacher conferences are held for all parents of students in grades TK-8 in November and a Student-Led Conference in the Spring. Parents mustattend the conference in order to receive the 1st trimester report card (K-8) and STAR Test Results for K – 8.                                         

If a parent wishes a conference regarding academic progress at any other time, they may contact the teacher in writing or call the office to schedule an appointment. Parents may also be contacted by teachers or the principal to discuss academic or behavioral situations. Teachers may meet with parents a reasonable number of times throughout the school year. 

In keeping with the church's principle of subsidiarity and working out difficulties mutually within the demands of the Gospel, problems should be solved at the lowest level whenever possible. Thus, if parents have concerns regarding any teacher or other school employee, they will need to call the office for an appointment or contact the person directly. TEACHERS WILL NOT BE ASKED TO LEAVE THE CLASSROOM TO TAKE PHONE CALLS OR TO MEET WITH PARENTS UNLESS REQUESTED BY THE PRINCIPAL. PLEASE DO NOT DISTURB THE FACULTY OR STAFF MEMBERS DURING SCHOOL SUPERVISION AS IT MAY DISTRACT THEM FROM THEIR DUTIES.​

Appointments regarding student academic or behavioral problems may be made with the principal only afteran appointment has been made to attempt to solve the problem with the teacher(s) or staff member involved. Most situations can, and have been, worked out before the need to see the principal. Calls to the pastor or regional supervisor should be made only after the above measures have been taken.
