Back To School Success #4: Teacher’s Website For Parents

September 10, 2016 By Y3K

The class website is a great tool for both parents and students. Often when a parent asks their children what they learned in school today, the common response is “nothing”. You as parents should check the teacher’s website often so you can discuss with your children material covered in class or general information on how your child spent the day. The website gives you specific questions you can ask your student such as “What facts did you learn in the whale video you watched today?” or “What did you think of the guest speaker today?”

This is $450 extra property tax per homeowner beyond the thousands per year they are currently paying. The schools claim that this money is needed due to 1,200 new students that have entered the system from 2004 to 2014.

Report Cards

November 7, 2014 By Y3K

Report cards can be stressful for many students. If your child’s first term report card does not have the grades you would have hoped for, it does not pay to panic and add to the stress. Some children and their parents outrageously consider a bad report card a death sentence. This is simply not true. A report card can be used as a tool to help a parent have a clearer vision of what strengths and weaknesses their child has. Then once a weakness is on the radar, a parent can begin to address the problem.

There are many factors that go into the grades your child received on the most recent report card. Over the next several days we will take a closer look at first term report cards and what you can do to help your student improve future report cards.
