  Case: Parent-Teacher Communication
Our new administrator is requiring that we call parents about every event and everything going on with school. I feel as though I have too many students and too much work to sit down call every parent about every single thing. Any ideas on ways that I can communicate with every parent without having to call them for everything?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This idea might be a little old school, but you could put a note in the child's agenda and make the parent sign it so the parent acknowledges that they know what is going on in the classroom.

Comments: I find that with 54 students, it's hard to right in agendas. With the technology available and being implemented, some form of app communication would be easier for time management.

Comments: I disagree only because it puts a lot of responsibility on the student and they might not follow through about giving their parent the slip.
