Student-LedConferences2011

KES held its 2nd annual student-led conferences on Thursday, March 31. It was a great evening once again of students sharing their learning. Several students made comments to me about how much they liked the day.

"I couldn't wait 'til student-led conferences. I get to show my mom and dad what I have learned. I don't always tell them that stuff, but now they are coming here and I can show them." Gavin, 2nd grade

"I love student-led conferences. This year I am bringing my grandparents too!" Jackson, 2nd grade

"I love student-led conferences. Thank-you for letting us do this." Abigail, 3rd grade

I heard positive comments from parents too. One parent, whose child was ill that day and unable to attend, called to tell us that and thank us for having the conferences. "I am so sorry I can't come. I think it is great that you plan this for the kids."
