Editorial: Parent Teacher Conferences Unnecessary

I disagree with after school parent teacher conferences, at the high school level. They are unnecessary. I believe schools should still allow them, but maybe instead of having all teachers stay for hours upon hours after school, even if they don't have any parents coming, just let those teachers leave.  Parents could schedule conference times in advance.

After-school conferences are a good thing; don't get me wrong, but sometimes they are just bothersome to those who may only have one or two parents show up. 

Parents should be allowed to still come to these conferences, but they should try to call ahead of time to set a time limit, so therefore the parent doesn't  have to show up at the same time as an other parent and wait in "line." I feel like this will help with the misunderstandings and help teachers want to actually be there.
