  Case: Communicating With Uninvolved Parents
How do you deal with parents who don't respond to email, phone calls, letters, notes, conferences about their studnets?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think it is important to still try and communicate with the parents/guardian as much as possible. Like others have stated I would start each conversation with something positive about the student. I would try and bring little notes home to try and involve the parents more in the school. I would also make sure to let the parent know that my door is always open seeing as many parents have full time jobs or might only be one parent in the picture.

Comments: If I was in this situation, I would use this solution. I would use this solution because the teacher has encouraged communication long before a problem has arisen in the classroom.

Comments: If the parents continue to not communicate, I think talking to the guidance councilor/school social worker as well as admin might shed some light on why they are failing to communicate.
