The students enjoyed seeing the very moving MTYP performance called Jake's Gift. The theme was Remembrance Day and most students were very touched by it. Definitely hit home the reason to remember!!
Student Led Conferences--This year student led conferences will be a little different. Three students and parents will be scheduled at a time to view portfolios that the student will show their parent. I will circulate the room to answer any questions. If you wish to have an individual meeting, please schedule that at a different time than the conference days.
