Parent Teacher Conferences
Hello Alpine Families,
We will be conducting Parent Teacher Conferences on February 7th, 13th, and 15th from 4pm-8pm in person.
Appointments can be made at https://alpineelementary. meettheteacher.com . This allows you to choose your own appointment times with teachers and then receive an email confirming your appointment. You will need to know your student’s id# (lunch number) in order to sign in. Ask your child for their lunch number, most students have it memorized!
If you are having problems scheduling a conference, or you need to make changes to an already scheduled appointment, please contact your child’s teacher or the school office and we will be happy to add/change appointments on your behalf.
