Conference week starts February 16 - February 18
Making Parent-Teacher Conferences Work for Your Child
A parent–teacher conference is a time when important people in a student's life can talk about how that student is doing in school. It's a chance for you to ask questions about the class or your child's progress. It is also a time for you and the teacher to work together as a team to discuss ways you both can help your son or daughter. Whether your child is in elementary, middle, or secondary school, parent-teacher conferences are important. If your school does not schedule regular conferences, you can request them. Teachers need your help to do a first- class job. Together, you can help your child have a great school year. Conference Tips.
After Prom
After Prom On Friday, May 13th, Hammond High School will host their 13th annual substance free After Prom Party at the AMC Theaters in Columbia Mall. This event is so important for our students and is a great way to be involved as a parent. Even if your student does not plan to attend prom this year, it is a way to get involved in something very meaningful and fun. PTSA is looking for volunteers now and at the actual event. The committees for after prom are:
~Prizes ~ Decorations ~ Food ~ Set up, Clean up ~ Entertainment ~ Security~Tickets~
Committees are forming now. Please contact Laura Borowski at mborowski@hotmail.com or Sally Frekot at bfrekot01@comcast.net if you can help the PTSA host this wonderful event.
