February conferences are scheduled for February 12th and 13th. Parent-teacher conference registration will again take place through our web-based application, pickAtime.  PickAtime opened on January 29th.  Grades 3-5 will be offering conferences with the math teacher and Grades PreK-2 with the homeroom teacher.  There is a wealth of parent resources available as you prepare for your child's conference.  Electronic resources are available to you through the Howard County Public School System website or our newly developed HCPSS mobile app.  Please visit www.hcpss.org.   

Please note that all Howard County Public Schools will offer a fewer number of conference slots this year during the February parent-teacher conferences due to a revised school calendar.  The number of slots offered reflects recent trends with regard to parent attendance during February conferences.  Parent participation is strongly encouraged but remains optional.  Attendance during February conferences will continue to be closely monitored to determine if future adjustments to the school calendar are needed.  As always, if you are unable to obtain a conference slot during the conference window, you can call or email your child's teacher to arrange for an alternative conference time.
