Interesting article from a (former) principal’s perspective:

Overall, schools work best if we all assume best intentions and increase communication. If I had one thing to offer to parents (and teachers) it is that positive communication, early and often, is key creating a strong partnership between home and school. Take time to think about all the positives we experience with regards to our children’s education, and then highlight some of them with a note or phone call. I assure you, you’ll make someone’s day, and you’ll be glad you did.
