Dear Sixth Grade Parent or Guardian,
This year the Riverview Counseling Department will continue implementing the state wide comprehensive counseling program. Included in this program are group planning conferences at the 6th grade level. These conferences, called PEP (Plymouth
Educational Planning) Talks, are 60-minute group sessions that will take place in the Riverview library computer lab. Each
scheduled session will be for approximately 12-15 students, their parents, and the 6th grade school counselor, Mrs. Hoopman.
An individual conference may be scheduled upon request.
PEP Talks are specifically designed conferences for you and your child to focus on their current strengths and interests, education and career development plans, and information needed to continue to be successful during the middle school years and beyond. Parent involvement in the educational and career planning process is the key factor in successful preparation for the future. The goal of these conferences is for each student to take more ownership in their educational and career planning and to see a clear purpose for what they are learning.
Listed below are the dates and times available for your child’s 6th grade PEP Talk:
