Parents > Partnership with Parents
We value our partnership with parents. This
partnership comes in many forms. We recognize that
all families are different and we aim to support parents
in their children's growth and development. Daily
informal conversations take place as parents or
caregivers drop-off and pick-up their children. Parents
are welcomed into the classroom at any time. As part
of the project work, parents are encouraged to
participate in project meetings and field work. The
teachers and director are also available for comments
and questions via telephone or email.
Before the beginning of the preschool year, we have a
Open House and a Social meet and greet where
teachers will visits with our families. These visits
serve to introduce the child to their new teacher with
their parents. It also goes hand-in-hand with the
Reggio philosophy, which is very family oriented. We
look to strengthen the connection between the school
and the parents.
Monthly, we produce a newsletter that allows parents
to stay informed of what's happening in each program.
Each classroom teacher shares the learning
experiences that have taken place in their classroom.
Also, children's learning experiences are documented
through portfolio assessments. The portfolios are
available for students and parents to view.
Parent-teacher conferences are scheduled mid-year or
as needed. These scheduled conference times
provide an opportunity to discuss children's learning
styles and growth. Parents may also express
concerns and this can be a time to exchange
information to support children's needs and
development.
