Frequently Asked Questions from Parents

Is the beginning of the school year stressful? Are you bombarded by parents asking the same questions over and over? You are not alone! Planning and preparing for the beginning of the school year can be overwhelming, especially for teachers of younger grades.

During those hectic first few days of school you’re juggling a million different tasks at once like soothing a crying child, helping students find a seat, tying shoes, when you’re approached by a parent who has questions. Does this situation sound familiar? What should you do? You’re the teacher, it’s your job to communicate with parents, but you also have a million other things to take care of. In your effort to please everybody and juggle all of your duties at once you forget to include one crucial piece of information and your year gets off to a rocky start.

Parent Handbook

Parents of young children- especially first time parents or parents of children who are attending school for the first time, have many questions at the beginning of the year such as:

• How do I pay for meals in the cafeteria?
• Does my child need a backpack?
• Will my child have homework?
• And many more!
