Conference Format

This year Risdon Middle School is going back to our "arena" conference style. This is a way for families and teachers to discuss student progress. You will receive an email from your student's 4th period teacher with information and a link to sign up.

Conferences will take place on November 25 between 12:00pm and 3:00pm and on November 26 from 12:00pm to 3:00pm, and then between 4:00pm to 7:00pm.

• You will have a chance to meet with each of your student's teachers. Each conference should last no more than 5 minutes. If you need additional time with a teacher, you can schedule a separate meeting for another agreed upon time.
• Conferences occur AFTER first trimester ends. The last day for students to turn in work will be November 22nd, so students wil no longer have the ability to raise their first trimester grades. The conferences should focus on goal-setting for second trimester.
• You are welcome to attend conferences at a time that works best for you. Signing up for a time slot allows us to estimate the number of families to expect, as well as plan for interpreters.
