Student-Led Conferences
Student led conferences (SLCs) are our alternative to traditional parent-teacher conferences. SLCs are an opportunity for students to share their academic and social progress with their families.
If you are not familiar with the student-centered approach, here are our reasons and goals for using this approach:
● To teach students the process of reflection and self-evaluation
● To increase parent-child communication and encourage honest conversation among teachers, the student, and the parents
● To allow students to take ownership of their academic performance and to do their own goal setting
Here is what to expect at the Student-Led Conference:
● Your child will do most of the talking
● Your child will discuss his/her progress
● Your child will discuss his/her goals
● Parents will be able to ask further questions of the student and teacher
