Junior High Student Led Parent/Teacher Conferences
Sacred Heart Junior High Students (Grades 6-8) will be participating in Student Led Parent/Teacher Conferences on Tuesday, October 29th. Our entire Junior High Staff will be present in the McGremlin Gym for these conferences. Student led conferences require students to be invested in their own learning. The benefits of this format are the development of goal-setting, public speaking skills, and self-reflection on academic progress.
When you enter the gym with your student, the teachers will be sitting at tables around the sides of the gym. You may begin with the teacher of your choosing. Your students will have practiced their presentation to not exceed five minutes in length. This time frame will allow your students to present the information for all of their classes. After the five-minute presentation is concluded, please proceed to the next available teacher.
The conferences will be approximately five minutes in length and your students have been preparing SMART goals and portfolios for your review. These portfolios contain work that the students feel has been successful and assignments that they have struggled on. Attached is a video from Wildwood Magnet School who has successfully introduced this concept in their school.

After the conference, if you have additional concerns in a particular class, the Junior High Staff will have sign-up sheets at their tables for you to schedule a time to meet with that teacher.
