3.8 Notice of Student-Led Conferences

Hello Tucana Families!
The following letter was sent home on March 7, 2012. Please send the bottom portion of the original letter back with your top two preferences. You may also email us to request a time (abakr@mtsd-vt.org). Thank you!
------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Tucana Parents and Guardians,
We hope you can attend a Student-Led Conference on the evenings of Thursday, March 15th and Wednesday, March 21st in room 209 (Humanities room). Educational research tells us that children benefit greatly from having meaningful conversations about their learning with important adults in their lives. To that end, your child will present to you artifacts of their learning from the second and third quarters—work from each class that s/he has thoughtfully selected to demonstrate learning and growth.

Anyone is welcome—parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, neighbors, etc. If no adult is able to attend on these dates, we will gladly make arrangements for you to conference with your child at another time as we do expect each student to conduct a Student-Led Conference with one or more adults who are invested in their learning.

We look forward to seeing you!

Sincerely,

The Teachers of Team Tucana:
Amira Bakr
Sharon Ehret
Rob DeCicco
Stacey Endres
Amy Macbeth
