Starting off on a Good Note

As we are coming to an end of this quarter and we are preparing for parent/teacher conferences, I am realizing how important it is to have good communication between parents and teachers. If you don't start off the year communicating with parents how well their students are doing in class so far, then it will be harder to communicate and have parents on your side when "bad" things happen in class. When you start the year off on a positive note, then things work out so much better throughout the year.
