Dear parents,
By this point, all parents should have scheduled parent-teacher conference appointments. If you have not yet signed up for an appointment, please do so here.
If you need help with translation, please plan accordingly. Families are invited to bring their own translator. If you are unable to find someone to help with translation, we have limited translation assistance in a few languages. Please inform your classroom teacher if you are requesting translation services. These requests should be made as early in advance as possible. We will attempt to provide reasonable translation support given our current staff resources.
As a courtesy to our SSIS parent community, our school will provide staff supervision of school-age children during conference appointments. Students in grades 3, 4 and 5 are invited to participate in conferences. However, younger students are not invited to participate in the conferences. For parents that need help with childcare of younger children, we will have staff supervision of the elementary playground area during conference times.
If parents would like to use this service, please bring your child to the playground 10 minutes before the start of the conference. One of the SSIS teaching assistants will be on duty in the playground area to provide adult supervision. Please make sure to gather your child immediately after your conferences. This service is only made available to school-age children.
We hope you appreciate this service and find it convenient as you attend conferences.
Sincerely,
Dan Keller, PhD
