Parent-Teacher Conferences

November 6, 2019

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Conferences will take place on Wednesday, November 6th. Conferences are 15 minutes in length with start times between 2:30-7:15 pm.

Due to time limitations, only ONE conference will be scheduled for each student. This conference is intended to include ALL parents/guardians of that child. If there are two households involved, please work together to find a mutually agreeable time.

To pick a time slot, please follow this link:

https://www.ptcfast.com/schools/Mineral_Point_Unified_School_District

On that web page, you will be asked to select the name of your child’s teacher (one conference per student). Enter information for that student and submit. You will then receive an email with a link to select the date and time (this extra step confirms you have used a valid email address). After returning to the page and selecting the date and time, submit the form.

• If you have more than one student, you may select more than one teacher. Follow the prompts to schedule for more than one student. This will bring up each student’s teacher side-by-side so you can compare available times more easily. Parents needing to schedule for more than one student should do so as soon as possible to better ensure time blocks close together.

Once all times have been scheduled, click on “Submit”. A confirmation email will be sent to you.

If you have questions or do not have internet access, please contact me at 987-0710.

Sincerely,

Jane Barr
MPES Administrative Assistant

The word of the month for October is "Empathy". All students will participate in an assembly to introduce the idea of Empathy on Monday, October 7th. Our mantra to describe Empathy is: "Seeing with the eyes of another, listening with the ears of another, and feeling with the heart of another". Ask your child or check out our facebook page to see how we're implementing Empathy in the classroom.
