A note about
conferences....
It
is hard to believe that in a few short days, November will be behind us! That
means that before we know it, it will be report card and conference time. When
reviewing the report card, please keep in mind that grading is based on fourth
grade standards. It may look very different from your child's third grade
report card. It is not uncommon for students moving up in the grades to find that
skills they once seemed to have well in hand, require renewed attention and
maintenance. This is important information that lets us know as parents and
teachers that students are still growing and emerging as learners, and as the
requirements for mastery intensify, so does the need for goal setting. This is
the first of three report cards and the hope is that each subsequent report
card will reflect improvement.
When
your child's report card comes home, please take some time to review and
discuss it positively and with encouragement. It is important for your child to
know that he or she is supported and progressing. We are all working together
toward improvement!
I
look forward to seeing you at our scheduled conference time.
