• Parent-Teacher Conferences - Please make sure that you call the front office to schedule a conference (704-476-8340).  Conferences are booked in 15 minute intervals so that parents have ample time to speak with all teachers on the team.  At this point, our schedules are getting very full.  If you just drop in, it may put our scheduled meetings behind.  If you are unable to attend today but would like to meet with your child's teachers, please contact the school and teachers will schedule a time during their planning or after school.  Thank you so much for participating in your child's academic progress.
