As teachers prepare their six week grades, English teacher Erica Rogers plans for parent-teacher conferences.

In years past, parents signed up outside classroom doors the night of conferences to meet with their child’s teachers. On Feb. 26, however, parents will sign up online for a seven minute conference slot for each of their child’s teachers. The goal of this new format is to improve conference efficiency.

West is using this online registration as a free pilot program through a company called MyConferenceTime. The feedback from West parents about this software will determine if West or other Parkway schools will use the program in the future.

“We want to eliminate parent confusion with MyConferenceTime. Also, we think it could help get the teachers prepared for their conferences and remain organized,” Freshmen Principal Mario Pupillo said.

Parents will receive both a phone call and email with detailed directions as to how to sign up for conferences on Monday, Feb. 25. Registration for conferences will open Tuesday, Feb. 26 at 7:00 a.m. and registration will close Tuesday, March 5 at 11:59 p.m. Parents should visit www.myconferencetime.com/parkwaywest if they wish to set up a conference with teachers.

Conferences will be held, March 7 from 3:00 until 8:00 p.m.
