Parent/Teacher Conferences
March 20, 2024, 1:15pm - 7:45pm
Important Parent Conference Information
Thornton Middle School will be hosting Parent/Teacher Conferences on Wednesday, March 20th. Conference attendance is NOT required for all guardians. This is an opportunity for Parents/Guardians to meet with teachers if their child(ren) are struggling in class and are in danger of failing. If your child is doing well in the class and has an A or B, there is no need to signup or attend conferences. Each teacher has over 100 students so there will not be time to meet with every parent. If your child is performing well in the class and you'd still like to talk to the teacher, it is recommended to contact the teacher via email or by phone to discuss how you can continue to support your child at home. Conferences this year will be a hybrid of both virtual (via Zoom) and in-person. The virtual conferences are being held from 1:15pm - 4:15pm by sign-up only. Every teacher will send out information on how to sign-up using Sign-Up Genius for the virtual conferences. If you do not receive this information by Friday, March 15th, please reach out directly to the teacher. The in-person conferences are being conducted from 4:45pm - 7:45pm at Thornton on a first-come, first-serve basis. Parents will arrive on campus and go to the room of the teacher with whom they are wanting to meet and wait outside of the classroom for their turn to be called for the conference. If the line is long for the teacher you are wanting to meet and there are others you are hoping to talk with, as well, try going to those teachers first then circling back.
Parent/Teacher Conferences
