​​​Parent-teacher conferences are an opportunity to engage in conversation about your child’s learning. Parents/guardians and teachers are able to connect face-to-face and communicate openly about student learning, especially with respect to areas of strength and areas of growth. They help build and sustain respectful relationships that allow both parties to share information and develop strategies to support student success.​​​

Parent-Teacher Conferences

Parents/Guardians/student/teacher learning conferences provide an opportunity to review a student's progress in learning in relation to the Alberta Programs of Study and/or Individual Program Plans. When students take an active role in learning conferences, they are able to reflect upon and discuss evidence of learning and identify personal strengths, areas for growth and next steps in learning. Parents/Guardians are partners in conversations about progress and what they can do to support their child’s learning. They can also share important information that may contribute to instructional decision-making.

Sharing of students’ progress takes place through meetings with parents at conferences which are scheduled 3 times per year. 

Check our Calendar for exact times.
