| Parent/Teacher Conferences |
Parents must attend a parent-teacher conference after each of the first three quarters of the school year to obtain grades of their child’s report card. These conferences are set in place to help keep the communication of school and home lines open. During conferences teachers and parents share the students’ academic, behavioral and spiritual progress and well as pin-point any problematic areas that may need extra care and concern.
In preschool parents are asked to attend at least two-parent-teacher conferences during the year to obtain the ability skill ratings of their child. Additional conferences may be scheduled as needed.

| Eagles Nest Newsletter |
| This newsletter is a collaborate learning tool to help teach 7th and 8th grade students about the publishing process. The information provided here, will give updates on school events and sports and may share personal stories and articles which explore student interests. |
| Teacher Availability |
If you are a parent who would like to speak to your teacher about a concern, question or an update on how your child is doing, please call the school office and leave a message with the secretary. The teacher will call the parent directly when time allows, to discuss the matter over the phone or to set up an appointment to meet.
Email is also a great way to communicate with the teacher. Teachers will usually respond to phone call or email messages within 24 hours.
You may also request to speak to the teacher at sign out time at the end of the day, and if the teacher is available to talk after the rest of the students have been moved to daycare, you may do so then. The best way to get full attention is to set up a conference in advance.

| Home Visits |
| Home visits are visits made by an outreach committee composed of the Pastor and members of the church and/or teachers. The visits are voluntary and are intended to strengthen the bond of families with the Christian Mission of our school and church. All teachers are strongly encouraged to plan visits to the homes of the children in their classes. At these visits take the time to find out about the history of the child, the parents, other family members, interests, occupations, and the importance of Christ in the family. Take along devotional materials from the church to give to the family and encourage its use. It is also a time get to know the teachers/Pastor better and as a support of the church/school-to-home connection. |

Meetings are held on the school campus once every 2 months in the evenings and in an effort to get parents involved child care is provided for parents who have no alternative care, so that they may be able to attend meetings. |
