The student-led conferences encourage students to examine their learning
critically and monitor their progress toward the goals that they have set for
themselves. Students prepare their own conferences, in each class, reviewing
what they have accomplished, what work remains for them to complete and what
goals they have for the year. It is not a traditional parent conference - it is
a conference led by each student to show their parents the kinds of work they do
and also discuss their behavior at school. There are usually three or four
families in the classroom, with each student sharing what they have prepared to
show their parents. The teacher's role is to support students if they get off
track, and to support parents if there are any questions.
