Fun on the field to talent on the stage

Our spring Student-Led Conferences (SLCs) will be held on Thursday, April 17 from 13:00-17:00, and Friday, April 18 from 9:00–17:00.

Unlike traditional Parent-Teacher conferences, where teachers do most of the talking, the Student-Led Conference format empowers students to present their own progress, accomplishments, and goals, fostering a sense of responsibility and pride.

Important updates:

• SLC will take place over one and a half days.
• Each conference will last 25 minutes.
• ECC conferences will be conducted as home visits, with specific arrangements communicated directly by the teachers.
• Elementary parents should schedule a meeting with the homeroom teacher through PowerSchool.
• Secondary parents should only schedule a meeting with the advisory teacher through PowerSchool.

Registration for Student-Led Conferences opens at 15:00 on Wednesday, March 26 and closes at 17:00 on Friday, April 11. Parents need to log in to PowerSchool to sign up for appointments. Please click here for instructions on how to register.

Notes:

• Secondary students are only required to meet with their advisory teacher.
• If other subject teachers find it necessary to meet with a specific student, they will contact the student's parents.
• If you have any questions, please email our main office at wyisoffice@wyischina.com.
