★Parent teacher conferences are scheduled this semester for Wednesday November 17th from 1pm-5pm and Thursday November 18th from 1pm-8pm with a break from 5:00-5:45 for dinner. The students will be dismissed at 12:35 on both days. Scheduling is done again this year online at: https://www.pickatime.com/client?ven=11601183 If you have any questions or are having problems scheduling appointments, please email us at stowslee@burrburton.org Helpful Hints: The pick-a-time software is VERY sensitive to both case and punctuation. Please follow the examples exactly in order to register. The most common problem when trying to set up appointments is not entering your student's birth date correctly. It needs to be entered exactly as the example is shown: mm-dd-yyyy. Also, if you are a split family, and another parent has already made appointments, you will need to contact us so that we can "clone" your student.
