Rationale
Clear communication with school community members is of utmost importance to me as a teacher. To that end, I have maintained accurate records of class work for all students and parents on my school website. I am an advocate for student responsibility such that if students are absent from class they know exactly what we had covered in class. I always respond to student and parent inquiries within 24 hours of initial contact. I am always cordial, tactful, and respectful in my interactions.
