Home-School Connection

Home-School Connection: From the Director

We have an Open House at the beginning of each year. WE also do progress reports 2 times a year with the parents. We let them know how their child is doing socially and accademically in comparison to the rest of the class. Our teachers have good relationships with the parents and keep them very informed.

Parents Say They are Encouraged to:

  • Fundraise
  • Are able to visit the school anytime we want
  • Receive newsletters

Modes of Communication

  • Drop-Off
  • Pick-Up
  • Regular newsletter/printed updates circulated to the whole school

Separation

Separation is Handled through:

  • Pre-entry meetings with parents at school
  • Extra staff dedicated to handle separation

Handling Separation: From the Director

We have extra assistants and we spend time getting the child used to being in our environment. The assistant can take the child for walks or stay with them in the class while the teacher is teaching. We try to encourage the child to remain in the class to get used to it as soon as possiable.
