It is critical that both teacher and parent/guardian be responsible for communicating information that you or I may want or need. I prefer that you contact me via email. I am also accessible by phone, however, it is more difficult to return a phone call than an email. Communication occurs in various forms. Progress reports and report cards are considered communication. The numerical grades and the comments teachers put on progress reports and report cards are informative and often provide accurate information in a brief format. Parents should attend open house, attend teacher/parent conference night, and email and/or call me with any questions or concerns as soon as they arise.
