Re: Parent/teacher conferences...
We have them on one night in December about a week after they get the first quarter report cards.
High school- we teach 1/2 a day (per 1-5)
11-noon (appprox) lunch break for teachers
noon-2:20- conferences
2:20-6 break
6-9 pm- conferences
We are asked to keep conferences to 3 minutes.
I would always get almost every parent because I taught 4 advanced/AP/college classes. Very sad because my colleagues that taught kids who really needed help, their parents never showed The apple doesn't fall far from the tree for better or for worse.

We have perhaps the worst system ever (although, supposedly, with our newest contract, it's going change). Currently, we just have to schedule them 1-2 a morning in a 3-4 week span. So basically, I do PTCs for a month. Freakin ANNOYING.

Re: Parent/teacher conferences...
well.. i work at a district in NJ... but for ours, we have it one week in november ( like right at the end of 1st marking period). we have a week of early dismissals, so every day that week teh kids are gone by 12:30. M,W,F there are conferences after the kids leave from 1-3. T and TH, teachers leave at 12:30 also, but have to come back for evening conferences from 6-8. this way, it leaves both evening and afternoon conference spots for parents to come in.
this is the only time its mandatory for conferences. we have another conference time in march, too but thats only by parent or teacher request.
