Dear Immanuel Families,
We are excited to celebrate the learning growth of our students by connecting at parent-teacher conferences. This fall conference is REQUIRED for all families at Immanuel and will take place on Wednesday, October 21, 2026, from 3:40 pm-6:20 pm and Thursday, October 22, 2026 from Noon-6:00 pm. You should have already signed up for a time with your child’s homeroom teacher through our Sycamore student information system at app.sycamoreschool.com using the school code 2565 and your assigned username and password. Any parent wishing to meet with specials teachers, confirmation teachers, or teachers of other subjects should reach out directly to those teachers to schedule a time to meet with them.
There are a few ways you can be prepared to engage in your child’s parent-teacher conference. This article from Child Mind Institute offers great suggestions on how you can engage in conversation at the conference. If there is something important you need to discuss with the teacher, please give them a heads-up ahead of time so they can be prepared for a meaningful discussion.
New this year for 6th-8th grade families, your conference will be led by the student! This means it is required for your child to be with you. Schedule a time with the homeroom teacher on Sycamore. The students will be prepared to walk you through their portfolio and reflection documents. You should expect:
• Your student will lead the conference, which will be facilitated and supported by their teacher.
• You are encouraged to ask your student questions during the conference about their progress, learning, and goals.
• Ask the teacher about your student’s progress, learning, and effort in class.
We look forward to seeing you at conferences and celebrating the students’ successes. Please contact the office if you have any questions about signing up for conferences.
God's blessings,
Mrs. Comfort
