Conferences is the district's site for managing your parent-teacher conference schedule. You'll sign in with your school email.

1. 1

   Open the sign-in page

   Go to your district's Conferences link (this is usually emailed to you, or shared by your school). You'll land on the sign-in screen with three options: Parent, Teacher, and Administrator.

2. 2

   Choose "Teacher"

   Select the Teacher card to open the teacher sign-in panel.

3. 3

   Sign in with Google, or use a password

   Most districts sign teachers in with their school Google account. If you'd rather use a password, click "Sign in with email and password instead" below the Google button.

A few settings under My Profile control what parents and Conference Day show for you, and My Classes lets you book straight from your roster.

1. 1

   Set your Room Number

   Parents see this on In-Person conference days, and it also shows on your own Conference Day cards.

2. 2

   Add your Virtual Meeting Link

   Do the same for Virtual conferences, then click Save changes.

3. 3

   Change your password anytime

   The Change Password card lives on the same page.

4. 4

   Browse My Classes

   Drill down from your subjects to a section to see the full student roster.

5. 5

   Book straight from the roster

   Click any student who hasn't booked yet to open the same booking form used everywhere else in the app.

Signing in takes you to My Conferences, a quick summary of your schedule.

1. 1

   Three stat tiles

   Total Booked counts confirmed appointments. Available Slots counts open times parents can still book. Breaks Set counts time you've blocked off.

2. 2

   A district announcement (if there is one)

   If the district has posted a message for teachers, such as a reminder about deadlines or a schedule change, it appears as a banner just below the page title.

3. 3

   Upcoming Conferences

   A list of everything booked with you: student, parent, and whether it's Virtual or In-Person. Each confirmed appointment carries a green Confirmed badge.

Your schedule lives on Conferences in the left-hand menu. Start by picking a conference window, then work with your own grid of times for each day.

1. 1

   Pick a conference window

   Each window card shows its date range and how many of your slots are booked, available, and total.

2. 2

   See your days at a glance

   Opening a window lays out each day as its own section, with a header showing the date, time range, and type: In-Person, Virtual, or both.

3. 3

   Read the slot colors

   White is open. Blue means you're booked with a parent. Orange means you've marked that time as a break.

4. 4

   Click an open slot to book it or set a break

   Every open time gives you two choices: Book Appointment or Set as Break. Booking is covered in detail next.

5. 5

   Print, export, or refresh

   Use the toolbar above the grid to print your schedule, add it to your calendar, export a CSV, or refresh if something looks out of date.

Choosing Book Appointment on an open slot opens a short wizard that walks you through everyone needed for the conference.

1. 1

   Pick the student

   Search or select from your roster. If the student is in more than one of your classes, you'll be asked which class this conference is for.

2. 2

   Confirm the parent

   The linked parent or guardian shows automatically. If none is linked, you won't be able to continue — ask the office to link one before booking.

3. 3

   Choose a type

   This step only appears on days that allow both In-Person and Virtual conferences.

4. 4

   Add additional staff and notes

   Check off any colleague under Additional Staff who should be included on this appointment, such as a co-teacher or aide, then add any optional notes.

5. 5

   Confirm

   Review the summary and click Confirm to book it.

You can move a booked appointment to a new time yourself — no approval needed — or flip it between In-Person and Virtual on a day that offers both. Both actions email the family automatically, and neither is available on joint (co-taught) appointments; use Request Cancellation for those instead.

1. 1

   Open the booked slot

   Click the booked appointment on your Conferences grid.

2. 2

   Click Reschedule

   Pick any of your own open times. If the new day offers both In-Person and Virtual, you'll also choose the type.

3. 3

   Confirm the move

   You'll see a final confirmation before anything happens, reminding you that the parent will be emailed about the change.

4. 4

   Or just change the type

   On a day that offers both formats, the appointment's details show In-Person / Virtual as two pills — click the other one, confirm, and it updates in place at the same time.

Teachers can't cancel a booked appointment outright. Instead, you send a request to the district office, so there's always a record and someone can follow up with the family. If you'd rather move the conference to another time, use Reschedule instead — it's faster and doesn't need approval.

1. 1

   Open the booked slot

   Click the booked appointment on your Conferences grid.

2. 2

   Click Request Cancellation

   This opens a short form instead of cancelling right away.

3. 3

   Explain why

   Give a brief reason the district office can review.

4. 4

   Submit and wait for approval

   The slot stays booked until the district approves the request. If the conference is happening very soon, it's worth contacting the office directly as well.

Conference Day is built for the day itself: track who's shown up and jot quick notes without leaving the page.

1. 1

   Pick the date

   Date pills across the top switch between conference days. Today is marked automatically.

2. 2

   Mark attendance

   Each appointment has an Attended / Not Yet toggle. Click it as each family arrives, or joins virtually.

3. 3

   See where to meet

   Every card shows the room number or Google Meet link straight from your profile, so you always know where a conference happens.

4. 4

   Add a note

   Click Add note to jot something down during or after a conference. Notes save instantly.

5. 5

   Past appointments tuck away

   Once a conference's time has passed, it collapses under "View past appointments" so today's list stays focused on what's next.
