Home Visits

Oh, boy, am I in for an adventure! It's time for Home Visits!! At our school we place great emphasis on building relationships with each family before school ever starts. Teachers learn so much by visiting the homes of students and kiddos seem to like having their teachers come over - even if they don't utter a word. At the home visit we share our parent handbook/calendar, details about Parent Orientation and other information to make the first few days of school run as smoothly as possible. We also photograph each child, create a photo roster for the class and incorporate those pictures in activities throughout the year. Big fun!!
