IB Word of the Month:
Spring Conferences
Hello Fridley Preschool Families, our teachers are looking forward to spending time with you during our upcoming conferences. This is a great opportunity to learn about what your child has been learning and review development and progress. Our conferences are scheduled for 15 minutes each, so please make every effort to be on time so you get your full time in. If you have a specific or more in-depth topic to discuss, it would be appropriate to schedule a meeting at another time with the teacher.
Conferences will be held May 13th, 17th, and 20th.
Please contact Katie Brown, Preschool Secretary, at 763-502-5105 if you are having any trouble scheduling your conference or if you need any special accommodations.
If you have not already signed up, please see links below for your child's teacher.
