Please, over-communicate!
Dani Kerrigan | October 24, 2009 | Comment
I have a son, 18 months. I adore him. Right now, my two hot topics with my current care provider are parent communication and evidence of learning. I think it’s really important for teachers and directors to communicate clearly and transparently.
For example, I hate when I see a new teacher in my kid’s room and I didn’t know the other teacher had left. It’s important to live up to the commitments we make to parents.
As for evidence of learning, I need to know what my child is learning every day. I love photos, anecdotes, etc. It helps me feel connected to my son and his development.
I know that The Grove School will go a great job on both fronts since they are central to the whole experience. If only The Grove School was in my city! Soon, I hope.
Dani project manages our team, making sure that our decisions align with the school's commitments. Outside of work, she loves being the mother of a young son.
