What can we as students, parents and the
community do to support our teachers? The
best way to support schools and teachers is for
students, parents and community members to be
actively involved. Students: Be actively engaged
in your classes, volunteer to help your teachers
when they need it, and seek help when you need
it. Be honest about what you need academically,
socially and/or emotionally and we will find a way
to help you. Be empathetic and understanding
because we are humans too and sometimes, we
have bad days just like you do. Parents: Communicate
regularly with your student’s teacher(s) and
take any opportunity you can to chaperone field
trips and help with classroom events or special
projects. Join your school’s PTSA, attend conference
weeks and open houses, and participate
in school fundraisers. Remember that we are on
the same team, with the same goal of ensuring
your student’s success at every level. Community
Members: Become partners in education with
your local schools. This could mean supporting a
club or team with a business sponsorship or enjoying
the cheap night out of a sporting event or
school play. Lend your expertise as a guest speaker
for classes or assemblies. Keep up to date with
school board meetings and vote in local elections
that directly impact your community schools.
