  Case: Unreachable Parent
I am dealing with a group of students who are off task and choosing to talk instead of work in class. The students have been redirected and informed that they need to stay on task and quit talking. When this does not work my first step is to contact the parents. Three of the students parents are unreachable due to phones being disconnected or wrong numbers. I don't know what I should do next.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Most students should have planners in your classroom that you send home important papers and questions and other things in at the end of the day. You could try and write a note in their planner asking for the parents to call you to discuss their student and leave a good phone number that they can call you back at. Another thing that you can do is to check with the administative office or even the clinic to see if they may have a different phone number from you. And if that still does not work you may want to check with administation to talk about the students.

Comments: Writing a note in the planner is a great solution to the problem, perhaps they just didn't give the correct number. This is a great solution.

Comments: This solution will likely not work if the child is intentionally avoiding communication with the parent. A parent who is unreachable is likely not showing any signs of cooperation for a variety of reasons.
