For Parents
Parents as partners in education
The relationship between home and school is very important. Parents and guardians are a child’s
first teacher. You are invited to be active in your child’s education by taking advantage of the learning opportunities that occur daily, modeling an enthusiasm for learning at home and by maintaining a close liaison with Rosemary Heights Elementary.
Impromptu conferences
Please make appointments when meeting with teachers. Since teachers frequently have to complete instructional preparation before classes begin, and may have scheduled meetings or extra curricular activities after classes end, pre-arranged appointments work best for all involved.
Resolving issues and concerns
If you have a concern regarding a school issue, please discuss it with the appropriate staff member. If it concerns the classroom teacher, talk to that teacher first. If the issue is not resolved, contact the Principal.
Steps to resolution
- Arrange an appointment with the classroom teacher so that your concerns can be heard without distraction.
- Organize your thoughts before the meeting.
- Keep focused on the issues.
- Treat others with respect and expect that in return.
- Look at both sides of the issue and listen to everyone.
- Allow time before proceeding to the next step.
