EMAIL AND COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL
As our parent community, you deserve the best and most responsive communication we can provide.
To that end, we have created a communication protocol for our parents. It is based on these guiding principles:
- Students and learning are the focus of our work, and communication that concerns student well-being and progress is a priority.
- Parent communication regarding their child/ren should first and foremost occur with the child's teacher.
Step 1: Parent(s) to communicate a concern or information about their child should be to contact the teacher.
- Each teacher can be reached through email, ParentSquare, and/or by phone. Please contact the teacher before emailing or copying information to the principal or others. This refers to all school-related issues, including those that may occur before/after school or at recess. Teachers will return your contact within 24-48 hours (during the work week). In emergencies, please immediately contact the office staff who will locate a site administrator if necessary.
- If there is a concern that cannot be addressed or resolved between the teacher and the parent, please follow the steps below in communicating with the site administrator.
Step Two: Meeting with Site Administrator
- Please email the site administrator to schedule a meeting time. Site administrators are normally most available before and after school in order to spend time during the day in classrooms providing instructional coaching and managing the school site.
- If the website does not contain the information you need regarding school activities, questions should be directed to the teacher or school secretary.
- The implementation of these protocols will allow the administrators to be more timely in responding to parent concerns. By following these protocols, you will allow us to focus our work on teaching and learning
Step Three: Meeting with District Superintendent
The Superintendent is firmly committed to proactive, consistent, and clear communication. In the rare case that a concern cannot be resolved at the school site level, the matter may be referred to the Superintendent of Schools for further resolution.
