Student Led Conferences (SLCs) is a chance for students to share their successes, challenges, and classwork with their guardians and caregivers. It is different from parent-teacher conferences in that the student is the one in charge of presenting their work and sharing their reflections on their learning. Students will create a simple presentation for each class that shows a project or assignment they completed in that subject. Students are provided a script and a template to complete this project and will also have time in advisory to practice. SLC week is 11/16-11/20 and each appointment is 15 minutes long. There will be a Q&A for parents and guardians about SLCs on Wednesday 11/4. |
