Parent-Teacher Conferences
Scheduled Parent-Teacher Conferences are held in November. In addition to the November conference, other
parent/teacher meetings are recommended when either party recognizes a legitimate need.
Scheduling Teacher Conferences
If there is a question regarding a classroom situation, the first step is to discuss it with your child’s
teacher. Charity alone dictates that teachers should be alerted to matters under their control before
being discussed with other parents, neighbors, parishioners, school personnel or administration.
You are requested to do all in your power to verify facts through correct channels of
communication to prevent passing on misinformation.
All parent conferences are held by appointment only. It is best to schedule appointments directly
with the teacher. If you cannot reach the teacher, please contact the school office, but be prepared
to leave a few dates and times of your availability. No teacher should be expected to meet during
recess, lunch or impromptu before or after school. Please schedule an appointment. It is
professional courtesy on both the parents’ and teachers’ parts to inform the other party of the intent
of the meeting beforehand. If either party feels the need to meet with the principal (following the
initial meeting) an appointment can be arranged through the school office. The principal is
available for consultation, by appointment only, after the matter has been discussed with the
classroom teacher.
