Parents
must call the correct building number (listed below) to set up an
appointment time or leave a message for a teacher to return the call. It
is important not to interrupt scheduled class time for a conference or
visit. If a problem occurs or there is a need to conference because of a
concern involving a student or teacher, the parent must contact the
teacher before taking the concern to the principal or Central Office.
Neither the principal nor the Central Office staff can resolve a matter
without first speaking with all parties involved. On most all occasions,
meeting with the teacher will resolve any issue that may arise. Again,
communicate with the teacher first about classroom concerns. If a parent
feels that a situation becomes unreasonable or policies have been
ignored, then call the office to set an appointment to meet with the
principal. The principal has many responsibilities that are
time-sensitive. Setting an appointment is the only way to ensure
adequate meeting time when both parties can meet without inconvenience.
It
is the parents’ responsibility to ensure written communications reach
the teacher. Excuse notes or important medical information should be
delivered to the office by an adult. Parents should check backpacks for
information from the school each day. Most of the information sent home
will require a parent’s signature and some type of return sheet to
verify the information was received by the parent. If a consistent
pattern of failed written communication occurs, the teacher, counselor
or principal will contact the parent by phone.
We
will communicate with you through regular progress reports every four weeks. We will send home newsletters and informational notes on a
regular basis.
