- 11/7/18: We will be opening the parent scheduler in Parent Access for parent/teacher conferences. The scheduler will close on 11/14/18. Please contact the school if you have any difficulties scheduling conferences so we can assist. It is important parents schedule meetings ahead of time. Showing up either day without a time scheduled will most likely result in not being able to meet with a teacher. Each meeting is five minutes long. If more time will be needed, please feel free to schedule a parent/teacher conference anytime during the year. To schedule a meeting, simply reach out to your child's teacher or counselor. This link will take you to some tips from the NEA on how parents can prepare for parent/teacher conferences; I hope you find them helpful: http://www.nea.org/home/60103.htm
- 11/8/18 through 11/12/18: School closed for NJEA Conference and Veteran's Day
- Looking ahead:
- 11/13/18: First day of marking period two and there is a PTO meeting in the evening
- 11/19/18: Short session with evening parent/teacher conferences

If you have any questions, please reach out to the school so we can assist you.
Thank you,
