PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCE DAY

October 15th - Parent Teacher Conference Day - No School

Teachers are sending home letters Friday, Sept. 27 through second period classes inviting you and your student to attend our Student Led Conferences Scavenger Hunt. These conferences focus on our students being accountable in their learning and responsible in showing their classroom efforts to their families. Your child will be presenting work and lessons from this school year in all of their core classes. With teachers as facilitators, students possess the active role of explaining their work, showing their progress and identifying areas of concern or growth. We hope this new experience in Murphy Middle School will be a success-building tool we will be implementing for many years.

Limited private conferences will be available in the afternoon for individual students that are struggling academically or behaviorally in more than one class. Teachers will contact parents directly should there be a concern regarding your child’s performance.

In order to streamline this process you and your child have a designated time to arrive at Murphy Middle School. Your conference will begin in the classroom of your child’s second period class. Please see the letter from your child's second period teacher for the assigned time for your Student Led Conference Scavenger Hunt. In addition, please return the bottom portion of the letter confirming your attendance or declining participation by Tuesday, October 8, 2019.
