October
October’s focus is on strengthening communication with families and preparing for parent-teacher conferences.
Clear, consistent communication builds trust with families and makes it easier to work together for student success. This month’s video will walk you through practical ways to keep families informed and engaged — from quick weekly updates to preparing for meaningful, productive conferences.
We’ll also connect this work to the district’s instructional focuses, like modeling your thinking for transparency, starting meetings on a positive note, and giving families actionable next steps.
Below, you’ll find your October newsletters on Family Communication and Parent-Teacher Conferences, the editable Family Newsletter Template, and the Parent-Teacher Conference Planning Form. Use these tools to plan your outreach and make conference time a positive, purposeful experience for everyone.
