Parents of 5-8th Grade Students (Student Must Be In Attendance):
Parents & Guardians of students in grades 5-8 will host a learner-led conferences. Your child has been working hard in their Advisory Class to assemble a digital portfolio that they will be sharing with you as they lead you through their academic strengths and where there is room for improvement.

The purpose of a Learner Led Conference is to put students in the driver's seat as they start to conceptualize what they do well and where they need support or to work harder and be able to communicate that with you as parents. This in turn will help to guide their decisions as they transition from St. Rose School to high school.

Please note, you will be signing up with your child’s Advisory Teacher who will facilitate the Learner-Led Conference and share testing information with you. Should you feel the need to connect with other middle school teachers please contact them via email or by phone to schedule a separate appointment.

Please sign up for your 5-8 Learner Led Conference by accessing the following weblink anytime after 6AM on October 6th: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1s9ZESdDJOQ-N5vIGoLvK5me-veEcCfVV63j5FndHuu8/edit?gid=43713508#gid=43713508 please record your child’s name on the date/time that you prefer next to your child’s Advisory Teacher.

If you have any questions please contact your child’s teacher or call the office to schedule a conference.

Dear SRS Parents,

This Friday marks the midterm of the first quarter, which is a great time to check in to see how your child is doing and how they are adjusting to the start of a new school year.

We encourage you to log in to TeacherEase to see their current grades and assignments at this time and to set a reminder to do a "check in" throughout the year. If you need help getting access, please call the office and Denise (618.526.7484) would be happy to walk you through it.

If your child is doing well give them a boost by highlighting an assignment or test that they performed well on. If you notice your child struggling in an area be proactive now to try to find the root of the issue, is it homework completion? Quiz or test grades? Or it might be an opportunity for you to reach out directly to your child's teacher(s). They are a wonderful resource for not only addressing concerns but also for hearing about the positive things that have happened so far this school year and how your child is adjusting.
