Virtual Parent-Teacher Conference October 11 5pm-8pm
Please use the attached quick start guide for instructions on scheduling your conferences. We are asking parents who are planning to attend conferences to schedule five-minute time slots with the teachers with whom they would like to speak. If a parent does not have any concerns or questions for their son or daughter’s teacher, they do not need to feel obligated to schedule appointments during that time. Also, if a parent feels their concern will require more time than the allotted five minutes, they are welcome to contact the teacher to set up a separate appointment. Families will have the ability to schedule meetings beginning on September 27, up until the evening of conferences. If parents are planning to see multiple teachers, we recommend leaving 5-10 minutes between scheduled appointments to join the next meeting. In order to schedule appointments, it is important for parents to be able to successfully login to ParentVUE. You may use either the ParentVUE mobile app or visithttps://rcsvue.rochester.k12.mi.us If a parent is having difficulties with their ParentVUE login, they can email ParentVUE support at [email protected]
