PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCE (P.T.C. ) AND STUDENT-LED CONFERENCE (S.L.C. ) GUIDELINES FOR PARENTS
The following guidelines are expected to be observed by all parents/guardians during Parent-
Teacher Conferences (P.T.C.s) and Student-Led Conferences (S.L.C.s). These guidelines hope to put
more order in the way conferences are done between and among students, parents, and teachers.
Everyone’s cooperation is expected so that this effective tool for home-school collaboration can be
maximized.
1. The P.T.C. and S.L.C. shall begin at exactly 8:00 a.m. and will run until 4:30 p.m.
It is the policy of the school not to release Report Cards before the scheduled date nor before 8:00
a.m. of the scheduled date. Report Cards that are not claimed on the scheduled date and time will
have to be claimed from the Registrar’s Office.
2. Conferences are held in the classroom of your child and it is facilitated by your child’s Homeroom
Adviser.
Please make sure that you know your child’s Grade Level and Section and the
name of his/her Homeroom Adviser before going to the school.
3. Report Cards shall be released following a set schedule determined by the Registrar and the Head
of Student Services and approved by the Principal. Upon arriving in school, all parents/guardians
are expected to proceed to the classroom of their child.
For 5th to 12th Grade Students, report cards shall be released after the Student-Led Conference
participated in by the student, the parent/s, and the Homeroom Adviser.
Parents will be informed of their set schedule at least a week before the schedule date of the
P.T.C. and/or S.L.C.
4. In the interest of time, each parent/guardian will be allotted a maximum of fifteen (15) minutes of
conferencing. For 5th to 12th Grade students, the first 7.5 minutes will be spent for the Student-Led
Conference while the remaining 7.5 minutes will be for the conference between the parent/s and
the Homeroom Adviser.
We encourage parents/guardians to keep the conference short but substantial by focusing on the
most important areas that need to be discussed. Homeroom Advisers will focus the conference on
your child’s strengths, areas for improvement, and the formation of resolutions that will be observed
to address gaps. Should there be a need for a longer time for conferencing, parents/guardians are
to set another appointment with the Homeroom Adviser on another date. Appointment forms shall
be made available at the Office of the Head of Student Services.
Student-Led Conferences are to be participated-in by the students, parents, and the Homeroom
Adviser. The flow of the conference is directed by the student and monitored by the Homeroom
Adviser. The parent listens to the child as he/she discusses his/her Portfolio Journey for the term
focusing on his/her strengths, area/s for improvement, challenges, and plans for the succeeding
terms.

Students from the 5th to 12th Grades are expected to come with their parents during the P.T.C. to

The usual conference between the parent and the Homeroom Adviser will happen in the event a
student will not be available for the Student-Led Conference. It is highly encouraged however, that
parents do their best to bring the child with them during the P.T.C. and/or S.L.C.
After the S.L.C., a parent fills-out a short questionnaire to assess the effectiveness of their child in
doing the conference. This is being done for feedback purposes only and will not have any
academic credit whatsoever.
5. Subject Teachers and Management Officers who are not Homeroom Advisers are also available
for conferencing on a first-come-first-served basis. The subject teachers shall be staying in the
Main Hall while the Management Officers shall be in their respective offices. They will be on hand
to discuss your child’s performance and/or any of your concerns from 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.
You may proceed to them before or after your scheduled P.T.C. and//or S.L.C.
6. All Report Cards will only be given to parents/guardians.

letter of request/authorization to the Principal but subject to confirmation and approval. Report
Cards will not be given to students.
7. The original copy of the Report Card shall only be given to parents/guardians who do not have any
outstanding balance in the accounting office.

Quote of the Week
GRADE SCHOOL STUDENT COUNCIL DONATES TWO COMPUTER UNITS
As their first project, the
Grade School Student Council
adds two more computer units in
the library for the SRC quiz.
The computers will help
the kids to have more
opportunities of passing quizzes
since they will have more
computer units to use.
This project of the GS
Student Council is the fruit of the
success of its Ninjago Movie Block
Screening at SM City Batangas, last
September 29, 2017.
The ECED and GS Student Councils
join forces in conducting a fund-raising project
which is the movie viewing of the film Casper.
The said movie will be shown at the school’s
Main Hall on November 15, 2017. There will be
a schedule which will be released in the next
issue of the bulletin.
The movie ticket costs Php 100.00. For
reservations and inquiries, you may coordinate
with the ECED and Grade School Student
Council Officers, Miss Erika Saguil and Miss
Haydee Cueto.
It’s Movie Time!

OF THE WEEK
The Semestral Break is just around the corner. Students are already
very excited to have their vacation. However, while trying to enjoy, it is
very important to make the students productive. Here are some of the
tips on how parents can help their children to be ACTIVE during the
break.
The students may spend their Semestral Break by enjoying reading
the assigned novels in their English classes. These novels are being
discussed in the said subject. Thus, reading those novels will not only let
the students enjoy the stories and develop their reading skills, but it will
also help them perform well in their English classes. The students are also
encouraged to take the quizzes about the novels uploaded in their
MOODLE accounts. Grab a book now!
Semestral Break is also the perfect time for the students to gain
progress in their Grow the Extra Mile (G.E.M.) Projects. They may continue
honing the skills that they would like to have. In addition to that, the
students may work on the videos that they need for documentating their
progress. Be the GEM in your G.E.M. Project!
The Mathematics teachers gave the students a list of assignments or
tasks for the Khan Academy. During the Semestral Break, the students will
have almost two weeks to accomplish them. Doing so will help the
students to make their brains active during the break. Moreover, the
students who failed to meet the First Term target in Khan Academy, can
use the Semestral Break to have a better performance in Khan Academy.
Nothing is impossible because you KHAN!
The students from Grades 10-12 are highly encouraged to monitor
their INVESTAGRAM accounts. Investagram provides a training ground for
the students to practice real life investing. No one can beat a person
who knows how to save!
’ The school is inviting students to visit the library and take SRC quizzes
from November 06-13, 2017, 9:00 a.m.-11:00 a.m. Have fun in reading!
Yes! Semestral Break is definitely the time for the students to be able
to discover a new hobby. Playing an instrument, engaging themselves in
arts and cxrafts, and the like are only few of the many possible things that
they can do. Open yourself to possibilities!
