Addressing Concerns
When a parent has a concern with a teacher, we request that the parent address the issue FIRST with the teacher. If the parent is not satisfied, he/she may request a meeting with the teacher AND Principal. Out of respect for the professionalism of each of our teachers, we appreciate in advance your cooperation in this matter.
