Parent Teacher Conferences

Aloha,

I prefer to call it Student-Parent-Teacher conference because our students have the best idea of what they have done and what they need to do.

Basically, we are looking at what we have done and what we can do to move our students to the next grade level.

Here is a brief list of what we can get credit for here at HLC:
Projects, Math, LLE's, Electives, e2020 and Compass courses (other than math), Work from Kumu, Basic Skills Workshops, Book Reports, Summer Activities, Camp and Learning Papers.

I am still learning how all our students can best benefit from all the opportunities here at Hakipu'u Learning Center.
