    Student-Led Conferences


    Michigan City Area Schools holds Student-Led Conferences (SLCs) in grades K-8.
    Unlike traditional parent-teacher conferences, these meetings are completely student-led. During the SLC, students present a portfolio to family members and teachers (or Crew leaders), reflecting on their successes, challenges, and growth. 

    Every student in our district, K-8, will lead a conference, and we hope that at least one adult from each family can be present.

    Middle & High School: 11:30 - 6:15pm 

     

    Parent Conferences are held in conjunction with Early Release Days for MCAS students.
