SOCIAL WORKER
Jill Hibbard, our general education school social worker, is available to meet during parent-teacher conferences in a number of different ways.
a) If you'd like her to join your parent-teacher conference, please sign up for the same time on her link and note in the comments "with teacher."
b) If you'd like to meet with her separately to talk about your student, sign up for a time before or after your meeting with the teacher.
c) If Mrs. Hibbard doesn't work directly with your student, consider signing up to chat informally about peace lessons and social work support in general.
d) If you don't sign up but her door is open (room 303), feel free to drop in to say hi.
