It's time to begin scheduling parent/teacher conferences for the Spring. They are coming up on February 15th in the afternoon and all day on the 16th. This year, I am going to be scheduling them a little differently. I would like you to schedule them online through our class' Google Apps accounts. The process should be fairly simple, but it will take a few instructions.

1. Go to our Google Calendar appointment schedule by clicking [here] or going to http://schrad.me/appointment.

2. Log in using your child's Google Apps credentials, located in the MOOSE. In the email field, you will need to add an "@mrschrader.com" to the end. For example, if it says that my username is jdoe, then I would need to type "jdoe@mrschrader.com" in this field. Then, I would enter my password in the next box, and click Sign In. Your next page would look like the image below.



3. In the blue bar at the top, there is an arrow, and you will have to navigate to the right to the week of October 24th. You'll know you're there when you see a bunch of available appointments on the 15th and 16th.

4. Each box that says Parent/Teacher Conference is an available appointment for you to schedule. Find a time that works for you and click on the appointment slot. The box below is what will pop up, allowing you to confirm your appointment.



5. Click Save and your appointment for Parent/Teacher Conferences is set! See you then!

I appreciate your willingness to sort of change up the way you schedule this. My intentions are twofold. First, I want to make it convenient for you to schedule your time when you are available while letting you see what is available. This way, you can find what works for you. Second, I want to make it possible for you to schedule appointments with me. I'll talk more about this at conference time.
