Dear Chamiza Families,

This is a reminder that Conferences are this Thursday and Friday. There is no school for students on those two days. Please arrive at your conference on time. If you need to cancel for any reason, please call and let us know at 897-5174. The conferences are a time for you to be informed of your child's academic progress and for you to ask any questions you may have.

Also, at conferences, your child's teacher may speak with you about the Summer Learning Program—these programs replace the former model of Summer School. Chamiza has been provided with only 20 total slots for this program and I had to make hard choices of who might be asked to fill those slots. A student must meet certain criteria to be eligible, such as Beginning Steps on the DRA2. If your student was eligible, his/her teacher has more complete information about the Programs. There is a fee for the Summer Programs and you must commit to taking your student for the entirety of the Programs. You will be asked to sign a Letter of Commitment at your conference.

We look forward to seeing all of you this week during conferences.

Thanks,
Frank
