At any time in the year, parents who wish to review their child's progress are encouraged to contact staff at school to arrange for an appointment. In accordance with this handbook, it is imperative that when a matter first arrives to contact the teacher by person to set an appointment. All teachers and staff have been asked not to engage in lengthy emails but to simply respond to parent concerns by setting an appointment. For a balanced work and personal life school related e-mails should not be sent, and are not expected to be answered after 6 pm. At the conclusion of the first meeting, the Principal Coordinator will be brought into the conversation if it has not been resolved during this initial meeting. It is only when the teacher, the Principal Coordinator is unable to resolve the issue that the Director will be brought into the discussion. Our distinguished teaching staff is ready to help you when a question, an issue, a problem or a concern arrives. Parents can contact teachers by individual school emails available on the school website. Please do not hesitate to speak to your child’s teacher.
