Content: While your child’s teacher is the expert in education, no one knows more about your child than you. It’s just as important for parents to tell teachers about issues at home that may affect school performance as it is for teachers to report how children are doing in the classroom. Students do best when parents and teachers work together as partners. The start of a new school year is a great time to open a dialogue with your child’s teacher. Not sure where to start? Here are seven things teachers wish you would tell them. Sharing this information with a teacher will help her better understand your child’s needs and lay the groundwork for a cooperative relationship throughout the school year. Health conditions
If your child is diabetic, uses an inhaler, is allergic to peanuts, or has a serious health condition, the teacher should know. It’s also helpful to let the teacher know whether your child has been diagnosed with conditions like ADHD, which may affect behavior and concentration. Family issues
Fill in the teacher if your family is going through a major change that could affect your child, such as a divorce, a death in the family, or a move.
