Message from Principal Sweeney
Greetings Charger Families and Students -
We hope everyone had a nice three day weekend! Fall conferences are next week. If you haven't signed up for conferences with your child's teachers yet, please click the link below to sign up for a conference time.
Teachers will be outside of their classrooms to meet with parents for conferences. Due to the number of students each of our teachers work with these are short 10 minute check-in conferences about your student's progress in class. Please plan to prioritize classes where you know your child is needing more support. The schedule is below.
- Monday, 11/21 - 4:00-8:00pm - In Person Conferences
- Tuesday, 11/22 - 11:00-7:00pm - In Person Conferences
- Wednesday, 11/23 - 8:00-12:00pm - Virtual Conferences
Please see below for more important information. Stay safe and healthy!
We are Parkrose Strong Together!
