Parent teacher conferences, for me as a teacher, are PAINFUL! My headache this morning is partially due to tomorrow's conferences.
WHY?
- I have a never-ending line
- The parents who show are not the ones that need to be there
- Sitting for 6 hours... straight... is not on my list of things I enjoy
- gym + school + PTC = 14 hour day
the benefits??
well, there is only one.
I get to go home with my enlarged EGO. Apparently kids like my class, which translates into happy parents.

I kinda wouldn't mind a one shot deal. Ours drag out over at least 3 days, then there's all the reschedules. Just scheduling them take a full faculty meeting.
Exactly, the usually the kids with the biggest needs are the kids whose parents aren't where they need to be, so frustrating
