Informing the school that you do not request a parent-teacher conference

Some schools hold parent-teacher conferences for parents who request one. The school may ask you whether you request a conference, and, if you do, when you would like to schedule the conference. In the following model, the parent replies by informing the school that she does not request a conference.
