Parents- Schools Communication
Today, with speedy technology development, we've known many cool online communication tools that strengthen the relationship between parents and schools. Some of them are PowerSchool, SchoolFusion, Moodle, Edline, Homework Portals, eBoards.
However, non-tech or interpersonal communication is still very important. Below are some strategies that bridge schools and parents:
* First call home or first listening session: "Tell me about your child"
* Home writing journal
* Invite families to come and read (in any language)
* Coffee and donuts one morning a week
* Make use of the elementary school "hand-off"
* Research projects on communities issues
* Organize child care activities
And here is the chart that compare the two ways of communication: tech and non-tech
