Dear Parents,
Welcome back! I hope that you had a wonderful Spring Break! It
is so hard to believe that there are only 8 weeks left until the summer break.
Please join Ms. Sweet and I as we host our final Coffee with the ES Administration. Our
topic will be on standards-based report cards. The elementary school is aiming
to introduce this new report card in the fall of 2014. We encourage you to join
us so that you can learn more about standards-based reporting. We will meet in the ES Cafeteria beginning at 8:45.
Parent-Teacher conferences will take place on Thursday, April 25th
from 3:50 pm to 7:00 pm and on Friday, April 26th from 8:15 am to 4:00 pm. You can schedule each conference online. Before you begin the
process, I encourage you to watch this online tutorial.
How to Schedule a Conference:
1. Once you have opened the website, you will come to a page
called, "AISC Elementary Conference Scheduler."
2. Grades 1 through 5 teachers are listed first, followed by
teachers from: Art, ESL, French, Indian Studies, Kindergarten, Music, Physical
Education and Spanish.
3. Check the box that is beside the name of the teacher you want to
see.
4. You will then be directed to a page where you have to complete
the following details: your child's name, your name and email address. Press
submit. You will soon receive an email.
5. Open the email. You will see a list of available conference
times. Please choose a conference time.
6. If you need to schedule another conference, click on the tab,
"Yes, I need to schedule another conference for this student" or
"Yes, I need to register another student."
7. When you are done scheduling appointments, click on the tab,
"I am finished making appointments."
8. Finally, you will receive an email confirming the time of your
appointments.
A step-by-step guide
with visuals can be found here.
Please contact Ms. Hazel or Ms.Cheryl in the Elementary
Principal's Office if you have any further questions; we are here to help.
You may begin to schedule conferences immediately. The online scheduler
