Carey Student Led Conferences - Letter 2020
Parents and guardians are cordially invited to attend their high school student’s fall conference. These
conferences are Student Led, meaning your young adult will communicate with you about their learning
processes and strategies looking beyond just the grades, to an audience that has a genuine interest in their
education. By participating in your young adult’s conference you will be able to share in and actively support
their learning process.
Students will prepare their own conferences with their Seminar Advisors. On the afternoon or evening of their
conference each student will have twenty-five minutes to present to his/her parents and Seminar Advisor. Each
student MUST complete a Fall conference. Please sign-up with your young adult’s advisor and by which
method you prefer; in-person or video conference.
When you attend your young adult’s conference you can expect that they will:
★ Take the lead role in their conference
★ Self-assess their 1st quarter strengths and areas of progress
★ Look at and discuss 1st quarter work samples to demonstrate evidence of learning
★ Self-assess areas which need improvement(s)
★ Set one or two learning goals for next term;
○ Juniors and seniors will also share their post-secondary goals they have been developing during
Seminar.
★ Identify ways to help meet those goals for second quarter
Attached you will find your young adult’s Seminar Advisor’s Schedule with their availability. Please select your
top three choices and return it to your young adult’s advisor by Friday, October 23rd. Your young adult’s
advisor will confirm your conference time and date.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact the school office or your student’s advisor at
207-678-2701.
