SCHOOL / HOME COMMUNICATION

I think it's critical that we develop a consistent line of communication between home and school. It's my job to keep you informed on your child's progress and development. With that in mind, I will be sending reading response journals and math journals home for parents to look over and sign. The signature is just my way to make sure that kids are actually bringing these items home.

What do I expect?
Well, as a parent of school aged children I understand how harried and stressful our lives can be. Between sports, homework, family and of course work-we are always on the go. I think it's very important that parents take an active role in their kids education. I would strongly recommend that you take a few minutes with your child to review the work being sent home. Look at the comments, ask them what they think about the work. This will take less than ten minutes but it will make a tremendous impact. Students quickly pick up on the fact that the teacher and parent are on the 'same page' and are in constant communication.
