Hello, Level III families! 

Each year in the spring, we hold student conferences for Level III families via Zoom.  Conferences are an important time to discuss progress from the past year and set goals.  

In preparation for conferences, the Level III faculty work collectively to communicate their observations and corrections for each student. Conferences address effort, attendance, understanding of ballet concepts, and technical and physical development. Conferences last approximately 20 minutes and involve the student, parent(s) or guardian, and two representatives of the School, including the student’s teacher and the School Principal, School Supervisor, or Managing Director.   

Students are expected to take notes during their conference to use as a reference. Parents/guardians should discuss these evaluations with their child to ensure a shared understanding of the student’s progress.

Class placement for the 2023-2024 year will be discussed. Please note: advancement from one level to the next is not automatic. It is not uncommon for students to spend two to three years in a level as they progress through the school.

Conferences will be scheduled via Zoom to accommodate working parents and allow for better scheduling. Click the sign-up link below with your student’s class and find a time that works best for your family. Your student must be available to attend. If you have any scheduling concerns or changes, please email pnbschool@pnb.org, and Nora Henriksen, from our School Admin team, will reach out to you.
