Last Thursday and Friday's student-led conference went extremely well! I was so proud listening to my students articulate their academic and learning skill goals to their parents. It was clear that they are all fully aware of their individual strengths and areas in need of improvement. I love the fact that each student got an opportunity to share his/her work and explain to the parents why that particular piece of work was chosen. Not only was it a reflective exercise but most importantly leading the conference was a great way for the students to take responsibility and be accountable for their academic work and behaviour. Opening the lines of communication between students, parents and teachers is absolutely important.
Thanks to all the parents that came out - 23 out of 25!It was a pleasure meeting with you! Together, in partnership, we are working towards your child's SUCCESS!
