Parent/ Teacher Conferences (and Sr. Reminders)

Parent/ Teacher conferences are coming up soon.  Conferences will be held on MondayFebruary 6th from 3:30 - 7:30pm and Thursday, February 9th from 5:00pm – 9:00pm.  Each conference will be scheduled in 20 minute time blocks.  Conferences allow parents the chance to learn about your student’s classroom performance from the teachers, it allows the opportunity for you to ask questions and they provide an opportunity to build a dialogue with the teachers regarding any thoughts and concerns you might have.

Parents, if you are interested in arranging to meet with one of your son or daughter’s teachers during conferences, you will be able to sign up beginning on Wednesday.  Conferences will be scheduled as people sign up for them, so if you want to make sure you have times that work well for you, I strongly encourage you to register right away.  


Please follow the steps below to register for a parent/ teacher conference:
  •      Go to http://ptcfast.com/schools/Worthington_Kilbourne_High_School.  This will take you to the conference scheduler.
  •       Click on the teacher you would like to meet with for a conference.
  •       Sign up by entering your child’s last name, first name, your name and your e-mail address and then click Submit.
  •     The next screen will direct you to check your e-mail inbox for a message with the subject “Select Date/ Team for Teacher Conference Now.”
  •     Open the e-mail and click on the link to select a conference time.  If you do not receive an e-mail, please check your junk/ spam folder.  Please note, you MUST follow the link in the email in order to complete the sign-up process.
  •      The link will take you to a Time Picker.  Available time slots will appear on this page.  If there are no available appointments that suit your schedule, please e-mail the teacher directly to set up an alternate meeting time.
  •      After submitting your time slot, you will be prompted to finish, schedule another appointment for the same student or register another student.  Once you have completed your reservations, you will receive an e-mail confirming the date and time of your conferences and a link by which you can make changes to your date or time if you need to do so.

Seniors, a few key dates you need to be paying attention to... next Tuesday, January 31st is the deadline to order your cap and gown and it is also the deadline to submit your senior picture to Mrs. Mullen so that you can be included in the yearbook!  You don't want to miss out on these opportunities.  If you have questions about either, come see me this week!
