[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher here - I wish BTSN was later in September. The first few weeks of school are incredibly hectic. Everyone is exhausted. I enjoy meeting parents but would prefer it when I am less frazzled. I barely know the kids when BTSN rolls around so I cannot connect the parents with the kids in my head and everything becomes a blur.[/quote] Possibly the point to have it so early. They don't want too many "how's my Larlo doing?" type questions when the evening is to provide classroom and course info. Parent teacher conferences are later on in the Fall.[/quote] I agree. One reason for having BTSN so early is to discourage conversations about individual students. That’s not the purpose of the night. Each year I have to tell sets of parents that I can’t conference that night, and then I end up late to my next classroom full of parents. [/quote]
