Parental involvement increases student success. I encourage you to become familiar with the textbook format and the concepts addressed. Ask your child what we are working on in class, and ask to see his/her homework or notes. You may help your child with his/her work if you feel comfortable doing so, but please be sure that he/she understands any special techniques you use. Extra help is available by request. It is the student’s responsibility to set up a time with me.
