Lakelands Park Middle School

Parent-teacher conferences will be held Monday, November 25th from 1:20pm to 6:20pm at Lakelands Park Middle School! Please note that teachers will have a dinner break from 5:00pm to 5:45pm to enjoy a meal provided by the PTSA and will be unavailable at that time.

Purpose of Conferences

If you are new to middle school, conferences in middle school serve a different purpose than at the elementary level. In middle school, conferences focus more on problem-solving and addressing specific concerns, rather than giving a comprehensive update from each teacher. Parents who choose to participate usually meet with one or two teachers as needed to support their child’s growth during this transitional stage.

Math and English Conferences: Registration Now Open!

• Due to high demand, Math and English conferences will only be available by sign-up on Synergy ParentVue starting November 10th at 6:30pm.

All Other Conferences: Drop-in!

All other teachers will be available on a drop-in, first come, first served basis. Simply come to parent-teacher conference night with the names and subject area of teachers you would like to speak to. We will have clearly marked signs and other staff members to assist you in locating teachers.

Translation

Translators will be available. Bilingual high school students from QOHS and NWHS will be at Lakelands to assist with translation.

From the PTSA

The PTSA would like to show our support to the teachers and staff during conferences by providing a pizza and salad dinner that night. We are looking for donations of drinks and snacks as well as a monetary donation to go towards the dinner. Please see the sign-up genius here as well as the website to donate. Thank you for all your support!
