Conferences

Conferences are coming soon. Unlike conferences at Highlands and the elementary schools, you do not have to schedule an appointment. You can come during one of the time periods listed below to talk to your child's teachers. The evening times tend to be busier than the day times, so if you can attend during the day you may not have as long of a wait. (Wednesday evening is always VERY busy!) We look forward to talking to you about your child's growth since the start of school.

Here is the conference schedule:

  • Wednesday, November 11 5:00 to 8:00 PM (usually busy)
  • Thursday, November 12 8:oo to 11:00 AM
  • Thursday, November 12 12:30 to 3: 30 PM
  • Thursday, November 12 5:00 to 8:00 PM
If you are unable to attend conferences, and you would like to schedule another time to meet with us, please contact Kim Slot at kslot@nvps.net or 361-3430.

End of the Marking Period

The end of the first marking period is this Friday! We can't believe it. Time sure does fly. The last day to turn in missing work is this week Wednesday. Students also have a book project, a story wheel, due in Inspire on Wednesday. We have been working on this during Inspire class for the last week so most students should have it completed (if they have used their class time wisely).
