Back-To-School night is held in September so parents have the opportunity to meet their child's teachers. Forms are sent home in September requesting parent and guardian contact information such as home address, phone numbers, and email addresses. These forms are kept private in the school office and referred to when contact is necessary. These forms are updated regularly.
The goal of this classroom in
accordance with the above mentioned policy is to keep parents involved in their
child's education. Through parent involvement the student is more likely to
strive to do better academically and become productive members of society.
Dr. Albert Einstein Academy also hosts
an after school program. It takes place when the school day ends at 3:45pm. The
purpose of this program is to assist the students with any homework they may
have, and also be a mentor to them. Also, the program is meant to enrich the lives of these students, most of who come from low income homes, so they are exposed to opportunities they otherwise may not have been able to participate in. While activities are in place as entertainment such as trips to museums, aquariums, and local colleges and universities, the goal is to reinforce the academic subjects on state and national levels. Literacy enrichment is this program's main goal and through it, strives to help parents with literacy as well.
My goal as a student teacher is to
communicate with the families of my students so they can get to know who I am, and
why I am here. During back to school night I prepared a presentation for the parents explaining this goal. I want them to know how much I care about making a difference in
their children’s learning and lives.
