Conferences are a great time to connect with teachers and learn more about what your student is learning, how your student is doing, and how you can continue the learning opportunities for students outside of school. At the middle-school level, it&#8217;s best if students attend conferences as well so that they can be a part of the conversation and can continue to build the skills needed to become owners of their own learning. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Nutrition Services is Now Hiring<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our Nutrition Services department is an integral part of not only Pacific Crest&#8217;s ability to provide a safe and welcoming environment for students, but also of Bend-La Pine Schools&#8217; ability to do the same throughout our schools.
