Parent/Teacher Conferences

The Sign-Up sheet is supposed to be on the website this evening (March 4).

Starting with the Spring Conferences this year Iowa-Grant will be doing the sign-up using Google Docs. It may sound complicated, but it allows parents to make sure they are getting times that are convenient for them. It will allow you to keep your time slots close together if you have multiple kids at IGEMS. If you do not have Internet or the new technology stresses you out please just write a note to me telling the times you prefer. If you are going to write in a time please give me three different options though, incase your first choice is filled.

Google Docs
The Spring Conference sign-up is on the Iowa-Grant homepage and it is a shared document. A shared document means multiple people can open it and add information. The document will look like a large table. Just find the appropriate teachers and put your name in the time you'd like. Google Docs saves automatically, so when you are finished there is no save button to click.

Conference Information
As for the conferences, they will be on Thursday, March 26 and 27. The March 26 conference time is from 4-8 p.m. while the March 27 time will be 8-11 a.m. The sign up times are split up into 15 minute blocks. So on the first night we will have a sign-up at 4:00, 4:15, 4:30, etc. The last time slot is 7:45. Again, if you aren't comfortable with using Google Docs just give me three available times you have and I'll insert it for you.

Adjusting Times
I had one or two kids who said they were going somewhere right after school for Spring Break. If that is the case, you can let me know and we'll make plans on an alternative day. I can meet many days before or after school or we can arrange another time that will work too. If you need a different time please contact me via e-mail (avanovermeer@igs.k12.wi.us) or phone (608-943-6313 ext. 1048)
