Parent Communication and Involvement

Communication between home and school is extremely important in order to ensure the success of your child. Please feel free to discuss any concerns you have with your child's teacher or the Center Director. We ask in the best interest of your child's emotional development that you and the teacher avoid having conversations about your child in front of him/her, or any child.

It may not be possible for you to have a long conversation with your child's teacher at drop-off or pick-up times as the teachers are responsible for supervising all of the children in their care. If you have a special concern, a meeting or phone conference may be arranged. Kid Krazy preschool provides many opportunities for parents to receive information on the progress of their child as well as the activities and events at our school. The following details the types of communication that parents will receive:

• Class Orientation/Meet the teacher: A day before the first day of school all students and parents are asked to attend their classroom orientation. This provides a great opportunity for you and your child to meet their new teachers. ( Parents will receive letter informing of date and time of orientation prior to opening)
• Teacher "Hello" Letter: Prior to school opening, you and your child will be receiving a "hello" letter from your child's teacher.
• School Notices: Both the administrative team and teachers communicate and send messages through Brightwheel. It is the parent's responsibility to check messages daily on Brightwheel and respond accordingly. 
• Daily Brightwheel messages with pictures of children's fun learning and engagement! 
• Parent/Teacher Conference: Parent/Teacher conferences will be scheduled two times per year, or more often by request. This conference will summarize each child's progress in our program. Conferences are generally scheduled in November and in May. 

Parent Involvement

There will be many times and ways you can get involved in your child's preschool/daycare experience. You are welcome and encouraged to participate in any or all of these. Some examples of ways to be involved include but not limited to:

• Coming and talking about your job or special interest (particularly when connected to unit of study).
• Helping your child at home with the concepts we are studying in school (see monthly newsletter)
