Some schools have had parent-teacher nights, some are waiting until after the reports go home. My experience is generally that a) parents assume everything is the same as usual with their children unless they hear different b) teachers believe that how their students are behaving/meeting or not meeting expectations is status quo unless they hear otherwise c) teachers are just starting to feel out how the students are grasping the material and what they know from before while dealing with admin and Bill 33 stuffs and mostly realize just how students are doing by preparing the midterms and seeing what it all adds up to. <BR/><BR/>To get down to it: if you feel that you want to talk to a teacher about how your child is doing, or you want some feedback from them, ask to see them (but give them a day or two's notice so they can actually pull their stuff together for you). <BR/><BR/>Quentin's kindergarten teacher just sent home a calendar for the month of September with a general note of what they did each day written into it.
