The Teacher Conference Scheduler module allows teachers to fully manage their own conference schedule! Your administration sets the date and timeframe for teacher conferences, but you get to set the available time slots for families. Schedule conference times, block off breaks, email reminders to families, and mark family attendance---all in jmc Teacher.

To get started, log in to jmc Teacher and head to Teacher Conference Scheduler.

Step One: Select a date from the "Conference Day" drop-down list to view and edit scheduled conferences for the specified date.

Fun Fact: As families schedule their conferences in the jmc Family portal, the "Parent-Student" drop-down list will be filled in automatically for you.

Step Two (optional): Select a parent and student from the "Parent-Student" drop-down list in a time slot to manually schedule a conference or select "Blocked Off" to schedule a break.

Helpful Tip: Need to override the appointment? Simply use the "Parent-Student" drop-down list to change conference attendees.

Step Three: Select a location from the "Room" drop-down list to indicate where the conference will take place.

Step Four (optional): Enter notes in the "Comments" field to remind attendees of important topics to be discussed during the conference.

Step Five: Click the "Save Comments" button to save your conference notes.

Step Six: Click the "Print" button to print a copy of your conference schedule for quick reference.

Step Seven (optional): Click the "Email Families" button to email an appointment reminder to all scheduled families.

Step Eight: Place a checkmark in the "Parent Attend" checkbox if the family attends the conference to track conference attendance.
