The spring conferences differ from the fall conferences in two key ways. First, fall conferences focus on setting goals for the school year, while spring conferences provide an opportunity for parents to meet with teachers to talk about student progress. Second, the way spring conferences are scheduled, there are fewer total meeting slots available across both conference days compared to the fall conferences.

Therefore, if you have recently met with your child’s teacher—such as during an IEP meeting or within the past month—please know that the information shared during spring conferences would likely be similar to the information shared in your recent meeting. To ensure availability for families who have not yet connected with their child’s teacher, we encourage you to consider whether meeting at this time is necessary.

Also, please note that attending a conference is not required to receive information about your child(ren)’s progress. If you would prefer a brief update, teachers can provide one via email or phone call. Additionally, report cards will be sent home at the end of March as another way to stay informed about your child(ren)’s learning.
