*IQ Meetings: IQ (Inquiry Quest) Meetings are our Parent-Teacher (& Student!) Conferences. On IQ days, we do not have regular classes. Teachers spend the day meeting with each family. Families are welcome to take this as a student holiday and come only for their scheduled meeting time. 
​
**Academic Expos: The Academic Expo is the culmination of the students' semester-long projects. Students will present their work to parents and family with displays, slideshows, oral presentations, and more. Students will only attend school during their scheduled Expo time.
