Case: Parent Disregard to Learning
I have a parent who emails me constantly about her child on a daily basis. The emails vary each time, but they are very rarely about academics and more about me "checking on her children." For example, before Christmas break, she emailed me to see if I would check her child's Ugg boot and let her know what size it was because she was out shopping. This particular parent is a stay a home mom currently, but she was a middle school teacher before she had children. I'm not sure how to stress to her what is appropriate and what is not when it comes to emailing your child's teacher. We have a great parent support group at our school and this particular parent has a great deal of influence. My school also has a strict policy that we are to respond to all parent emails withing 24 hours of receiving it. I'm not sure how to address this particular parent without causing an uproar in my classroom and for the school.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would try to relate to her on the teacher level, just explain to her how you are bombarded with emails regarding academics and that's where you feel you are the most useful. |
