Activity #2:  Discuss student-led conference format

1.  Explain: the purpose of the SLC is for students to gain a thorough understanding of what it means to be on track to graduate and what their current status is toward graduation.  By explaining their status to their parents, students can help them have a better understanding of how they are really doing in school. Throughout this process, students who are off track can understand the necessary steps to get back on track, with an end result of more students graduating on time.

2.  Go over an example script of the SLC.  Go through each step of the conference and ask for questions or clarifications.
