How To Get The "Best Education Possible":2011-2012

Every school year for the last 22 years I have observed the kindergarten parents walking their children to class. Some of the fathers had their little ones in their arms. I have watch as the mothers fussed over their children's clothes and hair and could see the anxiety building as the principal finally announce that all parents should leave the classroom and let the teachers get started. It is then that I realized that we have to trust our administrators, teachers, and staff to take care of our most precious possessions, "Our Children".

I truly hope that parents do trust their schools with their children. And I truly hope that teachers and administrators show parents that they can be trusted with their children to love, care, direct, and instruct them while in their care. You see, school should be a "partnership" with parents because the school has your children a large part of the day. I pray that everyone has a WONDERFUL school year and your child is getting the "Best Education Possible. "

Starting tomorrow,  I will re-post and retitle some important tips that I feel will help parents navigate their way through the 2011-2012 school year. For the next few weeks please read the suggestions and incorporate the ones that you feel will help you and your child. I truly believe that if you stay informed and involved, your child will have a more positive experience in school.
