In the feedback we did receive last year, the one comment that was most common was a desire for a more "private" conversation with instructors than our arena formats offers.  We recognize that the arena format offers some other benefits that staying in classrooms does not offer.  We'd like to try to get the best of both worlds.

 

At times when our schedule is usually slower, I'd like for our conferencing to be done in the classrooms, as opposed to the arena.  As parents contact you about visiting, you might suggest to them these different formats to meet their needs.  We will use some students to act as guides to help parents find their way around the school and into the classrooms they seek.

 

Please take time to examine the schedule to see when we will be in arena and when you will be in classrooms.  After conferences are over, please feel free to send me your feedback about this approach.
