Parent-Teacher Conferences for Grades 7-12: March 17 and 18

Dear DeSales Families,

We are excited to meet in person with our WWCS parents for arena-style conferences this month! Because of the challenges COVID-19 presents, conferences will operate very similarly to our fall conferences back in October. All of our protocols are in place to ensure a healthy, safe, and efficient environment for all. Please see the details below regarding how our conferences will be conducted.

Sign-Up Slots for Conferences

We want to be respectful of your valuable time, and we also want to provide a safe environment in which we can maintain social distance while following proper cleaning and sanitization protocols. For these reasons, we are asking parents to sign up for one of the four hours available for conferences below. Each of these four blocks of time is limited to 32 sign up slots.

The dates and times of the conferences blocks are:

Wednesday, March 17 | 5:15-6:15 p.m.
Wednesday, March 17 | 6:30-7:30 p.m.
Thursday, March 18 | 5:15-6:15 p.m.
Thursday, March 18 | 6:30-7:30 p.m.

Sign up for a Conferences Block Here

As a result of the need to identify and limit the number of parents during the scheduled blocks, parents wishing to attend the arena-style conferences must sign up in advance. Only those that sign up will be allowed in during the scheduled conferences blocks. Thank you for your understanding with this.

All of our teachers are excited to meet with you soon! Please review the following important items in preparation for arena-style conferences:

A health screening will be performed by a staff member for each person before they are allowed to enter the school building. Please do not come if you are exhibiting any COVID-19 symptoms.
Masks are required at all times inside the school building.
Social distancing will be maintained throughout the evening.
Conferences between individual teachers and parents must be limited to 5 minutes. This is to ensure that there is enough time for each parent to visit all of the teachers during the hour.
Teachers will be responsible for sanitizing their table and chairs after each individual conference with a parent or parents.

May Crowning

We invite you to join us this Friday, May 1, at 8:30 a.m., for the tradition of May Crowning in the Assumption parking lot.

We ask that you remain in your vehicles and tune into 90.7 to pray with us to honor Our Patroness, Mary, Assumed into Heaven.

Print the program or view it on your mobile device to join us in prayer.

Scheduled Team Conferences

If the evening dates and times above do not offer you an opportunity to attend but you would still like to meet with your child’s teachers, please contact Kathy Ruthven. The time offered may be a week or two after conference week, but we are committed to supporting you and your student. Thank you!
