Second Grade HTe

SLC Information
At HTe, we will be using a student-led format, which is our alternative to traditional parent-teacher conferences. If you are not familiar with the student-centered approach, here are our reasons and goals for using this approach:
● To teach students the process of reflection and self-evaluation
● To increase parent-child communication and encourage honest conversation among teachers, the student, and the parents
● To allow students to take ownership of their academic performance and to do their own goal setting
Here is what to expect at the Student-Led Conference:
● Your child will do most of the talking
● Your child will discuss his/her progress
● Your child will discuss his/her goals
● Parents will be able to ask further questions of the student and teacher
The meetings are scheduled to last approximately 20 minutes and I will do our best to be as punctual as possible. I thank you in advance for your understanding and patience should any of the conferences run overtime.
I look forward to seeing all of you at conference time. If you have any questions about conference times or availability, please contact me.
