[quote=Anonymous]What can you even do in 3 minutes? Seriously? You're supposed to leave work and haul back to school, your kid is missing a few days of school, you pay for daycare or miss an entire work day, all for.... <drum roll> 3 minutes face-to-face? It's insulting. This is not a conference, it's a roll call! Even speed dating has a 5 minute get-to-know-you window! I now officially retire my original question about 20 minutes. Shaking my head incredulously. PS_ One of the school districts had a shout-out on NPR last year, saying that the biggest challenge for lagging students is that parents don't show up for these conferences. Now I know why.[/quote]
