Dear Steller Parents and Guardians,

End of the Year Conferences will take place on Tuesday, May 19th and Thursday, May 21st. These will be student led conferences that include the student, parent/guardian(s), and the advisor, but will be led by your child. Our goal is to have 100% attendance so all Steller students have the opportunity to show off their strengths and talk about areas they need to improve. The focus for end of the year conferences will be to review this year, goal setting for next year, and planning out steps of how to achieve those goals, review credit count sheets and progress towards graduation, and deal with any concerns that students and/or parents might be having.

Conferences can be scheduled a number of ways and this quarter we have access to the district’s online scheduler, which is the easiest way for you to register. Do so by following the steps below:

1. Go to http://www.asdk12.org/ConferenceScheduling/StudentScheduleStartExt.aspx * This can be reached by going to the district web page, clicking on Parent conferences on the left, and then on the Middle School conference scheduler.

2. Choose Steller as the school;

3. Choose 7th grade! (In order to work In the system, all conferences are scheduled as 7th graders. It is the square peg into a round hole thing);

4. For Team Name, choose your student’s ADVISOR. Conferences will be with the advisor, if you want to meet with classroom teachers, you will need to schedule a meeting outside of the conference dates;

5. Choose the date you wish to come in;

6. Choose your time and continue through the process. You can sign up to receive a reminder email. If you need to cancel your appointment time, you will have to email your advisor. If you cannot use the online scheduler, you can email your student’s advisor with times and the day that would work for you and they will schedule you into open spot.
