What are Student Led Conferences?

Though formats may vary, these conferences differ from traditional conferences in that they place students at the helm of teacher-supported discussions with parents about student progress and learning. SLCs also often present opportunities for students to prepare, reflect on, and discuss evidence of their learning and growth by way of student portfolios.

Schools that implement student-led conferences report that they:

  • Encourage students to take responsibility and ownership for their learning by involving them in the goal-setting and assessment process.
  • Engage families in richer, more transparent conversations about student progress.

For more information on the general process of a student led conference, please refer to this short video from Edutopia.

Once again, parents will be able to sign up for a half hour appointment where your child will lead you through their learning thus far.  We look forward to this exciting time for you and your child.  If you have any questions feel free to contact your child’s teacher.
