Weekly Eblast -- 10/13/23

PARKING LOT REMINDERS:

• Pay attention and follow directions from staff members in the parking lots and streets.

• Use your blinkers!

• Do NOT park in the reserved parking spaces. These spaces are reserved before, during, and after school until 4 p.m. on school days. Your vehicle may be subject to tow.

Let's work together to keep our community members safe!

2ND QUARTER ILP CONFERENCES

Your child’s Individual Learning Plan (ILP) is developed each quarter and includes individual learning outcomes your student is expected to achieve by the end of the quarter. This serves as both a visual indicator of progress and an agenda for personal conferences with the student’s teachers and parents. ILP goals are developed each quarter during a student/parent/teacher ILP conference. The conference includes a review of the student’s progress and goals for the upcoming quarter. Participation in the ILP Conference is required. Students might not be promoted to the next grade level and/or graduate without this involvement.  

Conferences will be held on Friday, October 13th

from 1:30pm to 6:00pm

Please remember, ILP days are early release days for students. Students are expected to come with their parents to their scheduled ILP conference. If your family has multiple students, please plan accordingly.
