As we start to think about school this fall, we are scheduling Transition Meetings coming up on Tuesday, September 2nd in the afternoon and Wednesday, Sept. 3rd in the morning and afternoon. We would like to give you some direction on what that will look like this year. We continue to use the Bookings App through Office365. When you book a conference meeting online, it will automatically go into the teacher's outlook calendar. Student Transition meetings will be in-person with the option of a virtual meeting that will need to be requested when signing up online.
To ensure that you get as many options to choose from, please sign-up as soon as possible.
Steps for booking:
1. Click on the link at the end of this e-mail – this will bring you to all of the grade groups
2. Choose which grade group your child is in (you will have to book a separate meeting for each child) and scroll down the page
3. MOST IMPORTANT – Under the “Select Staff" option, please be sure to choose your child's homeroom teacher as it defaults to “Anyone"
4. Pick an available time either on Sept. 2nd or Sept 3rd that is listed
5. Add your details of your name, phone number & e-mail address (please be sure to enter the e-mail address correctly or you may not receive the confirmation e-mail).
6. Fill out the additional information – these fields are mandatory (child's first name, child's last name and if you request an in-person meeting or virtual)
7. Hit “Book"
Once you hit book, hit “OK" and you will see a confirmation page as well as the options to Reschedule, Cancel or New Booking. If you have more than one child, you are able to hit “New Booking" and it will take you back to the main page and you can follow the same instructions as above to book for another child.
You should get a confirmation e-mail for each online meeting that you book. If you cancel or reschedule a meeting, both the teacher and parent will get a cancellation/rescheduled e-mail to confirm.
If you have any questions or you are having trouble, please either e-mail us at emmsoff@westernsd.mb.ca or give us a call at 204-822-6225.
