How to make the most of Back to School Night:

During Back to School Night, teachers will present a lot of information regarding the class like weekly routines, policies, curriculum, and contact information. It’s a time for all the parents to get to know what the class experience will be like for the year. Therefore, please use the question-and-answer period on questions that benefit all the parents and schedule a meeting with the teacher if you wish to speak about topics that are specific to your child.

Some sample questions to ask:

• What are alternative ways you present curriculum?

• When is PE day, and what are appropriate clothes for that day?

• What is your measurement of a student’s success?

• How can parents help when their child is struggling with school?

• What is your policy for birthdays, holidays, and celebrations?

• How much time should students be spending on homework each night?

• How long should students be reading each night?

• What resources are available to students who are not meeting standards?

Benefits of attending Back to School Night:

• Meet your child’s teacher in person. This goes a long way to forming a parent-school relationship that benefits your child.

• See the classroom. Get a feel for your child’s educational environment. Get a glimpse of past and future projects.

• See the campus. You’ll know what your child is talking about when they mention the MUR. You’ll feel more comfortable going into the office.

• Meet other parents. Plug into the network humming with the inside scoop on free family events and deals around town.
