Parent-Teacher Conferences
Parent-teacher conferences are this upcoming Wednesday through Friday, March 9-11. School will be dismissed at NOON on Thursday, March 10, and there is no school on Friday, March 11. If you have signed up, you should have already received your confirmation and scheduled conferences from PickATime. It will contain the Zoom links you will need to connect with teachers. A reminder: conferences on Zoom should mirror conferences at school, which consist of only parents/guardians and teachers. Therefore, children should not be in the room with you while conferencing. However, we recommend you reflect with your children about the conference content afterward. Our faculty look forward to talking with you next week about your children’s academic and social progress and growth.
Busing for the Early Dismissal on March 10
Only buses from Bexley and Olentangy will be running for the noon dismissal on Thursday, March 10. All other bus riders will need to make other arrangements to get home that day. CASE will not be available on Thursday afternoon. Please be sure to update SchoolPass to reflect your plans for that day.

We met Tuesday and discussed parts 1 and 2 of “Parenting Without Borders” by Dr. Christine Gross-Loh. We will meet to discuss the second half of the book (parts 3 and 4) on Tuesday, April 12, from 8:30-9:30 a.m. on the fireplace-side of the dining hall.
