Important Information
Parent Communication
Just a friendly reminder that Parent Communication is an essential part of our jobs. Although we provide many ways for parents to monitor their student's progress (Schoology, Powerschool, etc), many parents do not take advantage of this.
If students are missing multiple assignments in your class, you need to reach out to them and let them know. A simple email can make parents aware of the missing assignments and perhaps get the student to complete their work.
Positive Phone Calls
Please try to contact parents when students are to be commended for the outstanding work they are doing in your classroom. There is not one parent that would not want to hear great news about their child. This message gets passed to the student and encourages him/her to continually put their best foot forward
