What can parents do to prepare?

There are a number of ways that parents can assist in keeping appointments with a teacher productive and on track. We recommend:

• Printing out from Skyward copies of your student’s grades, progress reports, homework assignments, attendance records, and anything else you may wish to discuss with your student’s teachers. Bring those printed copies with you.
• Discussing with your student any concerns or problems that you may then wish to discuss with your student’s teachers.

Parking:

• Permit zones surrounding the school will revert to free/exempt parking after 2 p.m. on both days.
• As we are an urban campus located in a residential neighborhood, we thank you for being respectful of neighborhood driveways, fire hydrants, bus zones and no parking zones. Although parking is exempt in permitted areas, city parking regulations remain in effect.
• The parking lots to the west and south of our buildings are reserved for teachers and staff throughout the day and evening, and should not be used by parents/guardians. Thank you for your cooperation.

Details:

• No appointments necessary.
• Parents meet with their student's teachers on a first come – first served basis.
• Student schedules will be available in the cafeteria.
• Faculty listing and subject location handouts will be available in both front school foyers.
• Please note that faculty will take a short dinner break on both days according to the schedule below. Thank you for planning your attendance accordingly.
• During unscheduled time, parents may tour the school, visit the counseling center, library and cafeteria. The Spirit Shop will be open for you to purchase your JudgePride gear. The Judge Parent Association (JPA) will also be available in the cafeteria to answer questions. JPA will serve light refreshments throughout the evening.
• Tickets for the 29th Annual Gala & Auction … Welcome Home! … will be on sale during parent/teacher conferences. Remember that the ‘early dog’ pricing of $75 per ticket is good through October 15, so it is a great idea to purchase your tickets before fall break.
• This is designed as a 'parents only' event and we encourage you to attend without your student.

Special Seminar:

• Most importantly, "College Recruiting Simplified" reiterates that the most valuable goal anyone should strive for is a college education.
• The session will be led by NCAA Presenter, Mr. Paul Putnam.
