Dear Parent/Guardian:

You are a vital partner in the education of your child, and parent-
teacher conferences play an important role in helping us plan and
implement programs that meet the expectations you have for your
child’s education.

With this in mind, Van Wyck will be hosting sixth grade parent-teacher
conferences, on Thursday and Friday, November 19th and 20th as well as
Monday, November 30th.  Each day, the conferences will begin at 11
a.m. and will end at 3:00 p.m. In addition to the afternoon
conferences, we will have one evening session, on Thursday, November
19th, starting at 6 p.m., and ending at 8 p.m. Please be advised that
all sixth grade students will be dismissed from school at 10:30 a.m.
on each of the three report card conference dates.

In the near future, teams will be sending out invitations for parent-
teacher conferences. If you receive an invitation to attend a
conference, please call the following secretary, according to your
child’s team, during normal business hours:

Teams 6A, 6B and 6C     Mrs. Cathy Keller               227-1700 x 108

Teams 6D, 6E and 6F             Mrs. Kathy Romanovsky   227-1700 x 103

Each conference usually lasts 15 to 20 minutes. We must adhere
strictly to our schedule so as to avoid delaying others. Students and/
or other children should not attend the conferences.

If you were not invited to attend a conference, but would like an
opportunity to discuss your child’s progress with his/her team, please
call the designated secretary to inquire about available conference
times. If you are unable to schedule a parent teacher conference
during this time, please call Mrs. Romanovsky to schedule a team
meeting.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to
contact either myself or Mr. Shuchat at your convenience.

Sincerely,

James P Daley
6th Grade House Principal
