Parent-Teacher Conferences in the Book-Based Program
 | - In the Book-Based Program, the parent or guardian acts as the student’s teacher. For this reason, there are no dedicated days for Parent-Teacher Conferences.
- However, parents and guardians can review their student’s grades and progress by:
- Reviewing the monthly progress reports
- Emailing their Book-Based Program Coordinator for suggestions if their student is struggling in one or more courses

Parent-Teacher Conferences in the Sapphire Live Program
 | - Parent-Teacher Conferences are held once a year on November 25 and November 26. Regular classes are canceled for that day.
- Additionally, parents or guardians can request a Parent-Teacher Conference at any point in the school year by emailing their student’s teacher; classes will not be canceled during requested conferences.
- During Parent-Teacher Conferences, teachers will meet with parents to discuss what a student is doing well as well as growth areas for the student. It is a great time of connection and can really benefit students as parent/teacher communication is key for student success.
