November Parent/Teacher Conferences

Parent-Teacher Conferences provide teachers and parents with a wonderful opportunity to discuss progress made through the first quarter and identify areas for growth. Conferences will be scheduled in 20-minute increments, focusing on ELA and scheduled with your child’s homeroom teacher. Below, please find the dates that teachers will be hosting in-person and virtual parent-teacher conferences:

  • Monday, November 25, conferences will be hosted in-person 

  • Tuesday, November 26, conferences will be hosted virtually 

  • Wednesday November 27, conferences will be hosted virtually (based on teacher schedules)

Related Arts teachers will also be holding parent-teacher conferences. You can schedule a conference with your child's related arts teachers if you would like to meet with them. 

Beginning today, Friday, November 8, at 8:00 a.m., and continuing through Thursday, November 21, at 4:00 p.m., you can log on to HCPSS Connect at www.hcpss.org/connect to access the Synergy Conference Management System. You can then select your desired 20-minute conference time based on the teacher’s availability. Click here for directions to schedule your conference. Parents needing assistance with scheduling a conference should contact the DRES front office staff at 410-313-5000.

Tips for Scheduling Conferences:

  • Parent Teacher Conferences will be scheduled in 20-minute increments.

  • Conferences will focus on ELA and will be scheduled with your child’s homeroom teacher. 

  • You will use your HCPSS Connect/Family File account to schedule Parent Teacher Conferences.

  • If you have multiple children at DRES it is suggested that you include a 20-minute buffer between conferences to allow for travel time within the building for in-person conferences.  Teachers will not be able to accommodate additional time beyond the scheduled 20 minutes.
