Belle Plaine P/T Conferences Have Great Turnout!!

On November 6th and 7th, Parent/Teacher Conferences were held at Belle Plaine.  Twice a year every parent and/or student has the opportunity to schedule a time to visit with their assigned Advisor to discuss their academic progress and performance.  These conferences are a great time share and discuss ideas and ways in which the parent, student, and school can all work together to help every student succeed.  Communication is key in this process!

Shortly after my arrival to Belle Plaine I sensed a slight distance in communication between the school and home through many discussions I had with parents, students, and staff,.  Since the first day of school, I have encouraged teachers and parents to reach out to one another to establish relationships that would benefit students.  In a short time I feel we have made good progress in this area, but there is still room for growth from both sides.  Attendance data from conferences is a good indicator that we do have parents and teachers who are eager to discuss what needs to be done to see that ALL students succeed.
