Parent/Teacher Conferences
Parent/Teacher Conferences
October 2nd & 3rd 3:00-7:00pm
October 2nd & 3rd 3:00-7:00pm
St. Albert’s school conferences are quickly approaching: Tuesday, October 2, and Wednesday, October 3. This is such a great opportunity for the team of parents, teachers and students to collaborate on goals and progress for the school year that lies in front of us! We want each conference to be a productive meeting between all influences in your child’s education.
We would like to clarify the sign-up procedures and expectations of our upcoming conferences:
This year, we ask that all parents sign up for a conference with only their child’s homeroom teacher. The basis of this model is to build and nurture the relationship between homeroom teachers, their students, and their families. We want all students and parents to feel that their homeroom teacher is a person they can trust, and can go to with any issues they may be having at school. This conference model helps build and strengthen this relationship.
We understand that you may want to meet with a teacher other than the homeroom teacher. If you feel the need for a conference with a different teacher other than your homeroom teacher, please contact that teacher to make arrangements.
Your homeroom teachers will provide feedback from other teachers on their grade level as well.
Thank you for support. We look forward to seeing you.

PTO Conference Dinner Signups
PTO Conference Dinner Signups
It's hard to believe it, but Parent/Teacher Conferences are just around the corner and we need your help. In keeping with tradition, the PTO will provide dinner for our teachers on both evenings of the conferences (Oct. 2nd and 3rd) in the teachers lounge. We are looking for volunteers to help serve, provide additional food items and help straighten up when it is over.
It is a wonderful way to show our gratitude to the teachers for all their hard work!! In addition it is an easy way to support the PTO if otherwise your schedule hasn't permitted.
Please consider helping us show how much we appreciate all the teachers do!
Thank you,
Jessica Sullivan and Kelli Tyler
