Parents,
With Parent-Teacher Conferences coming up, we want to make sure we have the most accurate contact information for your family. This helps us stay connected and ensures you receive important updates through Skyward, Remind, and Thrillshare.
During conferences, please take a moment to review and update your contact information, including your child’s emergency contacts. Your child’s school will have someone available to assist with this process. If you would like to update your contact prior to Parent Teacher Conferences please contact your students' school’s secretary.
Thank you for helping us keep the lines of communication open!
Padres,
Con las Conferencias de Padres y Maestros acercándose, queremos asegurarnos de tener la información de contacto más actualizada de su familia. Esto nos ayuda a mantenernos conectados y garantiza que reciban actualizaciones importantes a través de Skyward, Remind y Thrillshare.
Durante las conferencias, por favor tómense un momento para revisar y actualizar su información de contacto, incluyendo los contactos de emergencia de su hijo(a). La escuela de su hijo(a) contará con alguien disponible para ayudar con este proceso. Si desea actualizar su información de contacto antes de las Conferencias de Padres y Maestros, por favor comuníquese con la secretaria de la escuela de su estudiante.
¡Gracias por ayudarnos a mantener abiertas las líneas de comunicación!
