Parent-Teacher Conferences
Individual parent-teacher conferences are held at the end of the first
and second school trimesters to discuss the progress of each child.
Teachers will send invitations for appointments home with students to
schedule the conference. This year, conferences are scheduled for
December 13 – 17, and March 21 – 25.
School Site Council
The School Site Council (SSC) is a committee composed of 14 elected
representatives: the Principal, seven parents, and six staff members. It is a
shared decision making body that oversees the imp lementation of the School
Improvement Program (SIP).
The Council meets monthly and is directly
involved in setting goals and objectives for the school, as well as
determining and monitoring various school budgets with the Principal. The
SSC also provides a forum for parental and staff input for district policies and
directions. SSC meeting dates are announced in the weekly communicator.
Notices of meetings will be published in the Communicator.
Multi-cultural Parent Advisory Committee
This is a group of parents that meets four times a year to give input
and direction to multicultural education of our ethnically diverse
student body. Its members provide meaningful multicultural
experiences for students in classrooms and throughout the Hickory
community. ELMAC meets four times a year.
School Accountability Report Card (SARC)
Each year the school publishes a report to parents about pertinent
successes and issues involving the school. This report is compiled by
parents, teachers, and the principal and is distributed to the school
community. Copies of the report are available on-line. The long form
of this report is also available for you to read.
