Monroe teachers to be 'bused' <
Monroe Middle School teachers are boarding buses today and tomor-
row (April 15 and 16) to Comanche Park and Mohawk Manor to meet and
talk with parents of their students. Teachers will also be at the school to |
meet with parents who prefer to come to the school building. Parent |
conferences will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. today and from 8:30 to 11:30 I i
a.m. tomorrow.
“The decision was made to go to the apartment complexes on both day s
because some parents were missed last fall because of their own work or
school schedules. The teachers will hold conferences at night this time to
enable more parents to be seen,” said Monroe parent facilitator Pat
Huckeby. “Parent and teacher connection is the important issue.”
Because of the conference, school will be closed April 16.
