Winter Conferences

In our last 4th grade newsletter, we mentioned scheduling conferences early if you would like a chance to meet with both of us before I begin my maternity leave.  Beginning next week, we are available to meet before or after school (or even at lunch) if that would work for you.  We'll plan on scheduling these before, after or lunch conferences up until Feb. 14 (my anticipated last day).  If that doesn't work for you, I will leave a sheet for Mr. S to share with you at the conferences in March.
