[quote=Anonymous]To actually answer your question (about why it is structured that way), it is because there are 2 half days allotted for conferences when teachers are not with students. Even so, this means that teachers have to work hours beyond their duty day at least one (if not both) of those days to meet with the parents of all of their students. If a teacher has, say, 26 students, half an hour per student would equate to 13 total hours spent in conferences. That doesn't account for the extra time you have to build in between conferences (typically 5-10 minutes) to account for people who showed up late, so you didn't start on time, or ran over because you just weren't done talking. I second the PP who mentioned you can ask for a meeting or conference with your child's teacher AT ANY TIME throughout the school year.[/quote]
