Why are we having Student-Led Conferences?
Student-Led parent Conferences are widely recognized as best educational practice! Research supports the fact that student achievement increases when students reflect on their work, identify strengths and weaknesses, and set goals, thus taking ownership of their learning. Student-Led Conferences promote self-confidence, as well as vital organizational, presentation, and communication skills. They also provide parents with an opportunity to be a part of the grading process and celebrate their students as learners. Parent turn out at student-led conferences is often higher than traditional conferences because students are so vested in the process.
