Teacher Conference Information:
Greetings, MPS Families! We are pleased to announce our Fall 2023 Elementary Conference Schedule:
*Please note that we will have a modified early dismissal time on the conference days to accommodate the conference schedule. Therefore, students will be dismissed on October 18th, October 19th, and October 20th at 1:15pm. Parents/guardians will once again have the opportunity to select a conference time through My Conference Time. All conferences will be in person unless a parent/guardian requests a Google Meet link directly from the teacher. Fall conference sign up information will be live on our school website from Friday, October 6th, at 9:00 a.m. through Monday, October 16th, at 12:00 p.m. If you prefer a virtual session, please contact the teacher to request a Google Meet link to conduct your conference virtually after you have confirmed your conference time through My Conference Time Online Scheduler. We are looking forward to meeting with you to discuss your child’s learning! Quick tip: Look for emails from “noreply@myconferencetime.com” when searching email for conference confirmation communications. |

Arrival & Dismissal Reminders:
We are asking for your help to keep students safe at morning drop off and afternoon pick up. To avoid unsafe conditions, we need everyone to correctly follow our pick-up and drop-off procedures. When these procedures are not followed, we put our students and parents at risk.
It is strongly recommended that parents/guardians make a right hand turn into and out of the school driveway and avoid left turns to ensure a consistent flow of traffic.
We ask that you follow the guidance listed below.
Avoid getting out of your car. This can create a safety issue and slows down the process.
Children should exit the vehicle on the passenger side only.
While you are in line, you must wait until the car in front of you pulls forward to exit. You should not try to pass cars in the drop-off/pick-up line.
At afternoon pick up, have your car tag clearly displayed on the passenger side windshield so our staff can expedite the pick up process.
At afternoon pick up, please wait in line (in your car) until your child is brought to you.
DO NOT let students out of a car before there are adults outside. Staff is on duty at 8:20 am.
Thank you for your continuing support in making Calf Pen Meadow School a safer environment for all!
