Dear Upper Elementary Families,
We are about two months into the 2021 - 2022 school year and our students have done a great job settling into routines and putting forth their best effort each day. At the Westmoreland Central School District, we pride ourselves as being a team and working together to provide the best education and emotional support for our students. Communication between home and school is important towards providing an effective instructional environment for our children. As we prepare for Parent-Teacher Conferences, we look forward to your insights regarding your child’s education and input about the school year. Our teachers truly appreciate the support that you give to your child in his/her education while at home. 
The Upper Elementary conferences will be held virtually on Thursday, November 18th from 1:00pm to 7:00pm, and Friday, November 19th from 1:00pm - 3:40pm. On Wednesday, October 27th, 3rd - 5th grade homeroom teachers will be posting a sign-up sheet in their Google Classrooms for parents to choose a time that they would like to have a meeting. That sign-up sheet will be available at 5:00pm, Wednesday. It will be first come, first serve and I ask that you please not delete or change any scheduled meetings. Please contact your child’s teacher if you need to find an alternative time due to scheduling conflicts.
Our 6th grade teachers will be in contact with any families they wish to set up a parent conference with on those days. If your family would like to schedule a conference with the 6th grade team, you may contact them separately to do so.
Please note that Thursday, November 18th and Friday, November 19th are half days and students will be dismissed at 12:00pm. Paper copies of report cards will be distributed on Wednesday, November 17th so you may view them prior to your child’s conference.
Please reach out to myself or your child’s teacher if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you for all your patience and understanding as we continue to navigate through these challenging times.
Best,
Trevor Haskell
Upper Elementary School Principal
