Spring 2024 Parent-Teacher Conferences (PTC) are scheduled for Friday, April 12 from 09:00-17:00.

At PTC, parents are invited to meet with their child’s teachers to discuss student progress and goals. The time is planned to be reflective and action-oriented. Conferences can be an important part in the education process, giving parents time to ask questions and to work together with teachers.

Upper Elementary students are welcome to attend conferences, while Secondary students are required to attend the meeting with their parents. They may benefit from the opportunity to discuss their progress in an open forum with teachers and parents.

Parents of Lower Elementary students are asked to attend without their children to allow for the most effective time with teachers.

Registration for PTC is open and will close at 16:00 on April 9. Parents need to log in to PowerSchool to sign up for appointments. Instructions on how to register for PTC can be found here.

Note:

• PTC is a day off of school for all students.
• If you are not able to get the appointment time you need with your child's teacher, please email them separately to schedule a time to meet.
• If you would like to book an appointment with a staff member who is not on your booking list, please email the school office at wyisoffice@wyischina.com.

If you have any questions, please email our main office at wyisoffice@wyischina.com.

2024春季家长会将于4月12日（星期五）上午9点至下午5点进行。

我们欢迎您来校与孩子的老师就学习目标及其它方面的情况进行一对一面谈，从而制定更有针对性和切实可行的学习方案。家长也可以通过提问来了解孩子的学习情况，更好地配合老师工作，这也是教学过程中重要的一个环节。

中学生被要求必须与家长一起参加会议，我们也欢迎小学高年级的学生与家长一同参加。学生们可以通过这次开放性的谈话，与老师和家长讨论自己的学习情况。
