 A note was also sent home today about the upcoming parent - teacher interviews.  Here is an extra copy of the note:
 
As you already know, Thursday, October 25th and Friday, October 26th will be early
dismissal days. The students will be at school from 8:30 am - 12:30 pm. Recess will be at its
usual time, but the students will not have lunch at school those days.
The afternoons will be used for the first set of formal Parent/Teacher interviews. I would like to meet with all parents/guardians at this time. Please take some time to sign up for a time.
There will be a schedule posted on our classroom door.
I am also available for morning interviews this week and next week from 7:45 - 8:15. If
this time slot works better for you, please call me at school or e-mail me at (mohrling@sd73.bc.ca) to schedule an interview. I will also be willing to conduct telephone interviews if you absolutely cannot make it into the school.
Please note that communication between home and school will be ongoing throughout the
year. I am happy to schedule future meetings on an as needed basis.
I am looking forward to meeting with everyone.
