You can best use this page to keep current on what your student is learning in class, what his or her upcoming assignments and due dates are, and to communicate with me about any concerns or questions you have. Research has proven that parents who are involved in their child's education increase that student's grades and positive attitude toward school. Discuss with your child what he or she is learning in class. They have wonderful insights to share and would love to hear your input and to have you ask them questions.
