[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In MS and HS if you have a question for a teacher just reach out and ask. Or if a conversation would be better just ask for a call. Teachers are often reaching out to parents with student feedback. The speed dating formats aren’t really that great but there truly isn’t a good way for many parents to meet many teachers over the course of two 2 hour early release days. [/quote]

True, but one year, I reached out to teacher X in October, and didn't get an appt slot for a 10 minute call til December.  Teacher made an appointment with me, and then forgot about it, then was busy.

I wasn't pushy, my kid wasn't in dire straits, but having structured slots in November, during a time of the day teachers set aside for PT conferences can be useful for everyone so we don't have to try to slot ourselves into the busy day of a teacher.  I wish MS gave more time for them, so more parents would feel comfortable asknig for an appt.[/quote]

5 min when the teacher is exhausted from speaking with 20 people ahead of you =/= 10 min that you might need to reschedule once or twice. [/quote]
