Child Development Progress Conferences are a time to meet with your
child’s teacher to review their milestones they have already mastered
and to set goals on how to promote further accomplishments.
Conferences will be held for the Milky Way, Little/Big Dippers, and
Explorers. This year we will be conducting Child Development Progress
Conferences a little different. The teachers will conduct them through
Zoom. Please email your child’s teacher with a good day and time that is
convenient for you. We can also offer phone conferences if you prefer that.
Parents this is also a great time for you to let us know what you would like to see us do to
meet your child’s individual needs.
Below are the weeks that your child’s classroom will be holding there Child Development
Progress Conferences:
Milky Way – Starting Monday March 15th thru Friday, March 26th.
