What if I miss BTSN?

[Anonymous]

Does the school/will the teachers care? Will they hold it against my kid?

Then you will be like every dad at the school.

Depends on the school. At our daughters' school, BTSN and all similar activities are de rigueur for both parents. At our sons' school, not so much.

It depends on school and child's age. When my kids were young (lower ES), we (the parents) wrote notes for the kids to find the next morning and they would have been sad to be the only kids without a note. But the teachers won't care.

Our high school has zero idea which parents attend. No sign ins, no name tags and very short time in each class, no fraternizing.

As a middle school teacher, I would not care in the least. Can't imagine why anyone would even give it second thought.

If you are worried about missing info then write a nice and very short note to the child's teacher saying you have to miss it and to please send you and info shared.

The teacher is unlikely to care if you're there, but is likely to care if you're asking her to do extra work. If you want the material, either go to btsn yourself or ask a friend. It's not the teacher's problem.

PowerPoints should be shared with all parents regardless of attendance.

Hold it against your kid? Are you serious, OP? Having a hard time believing this is a real question.

I’ve had to miss because of different kids BTSN on same day so DH and I split. He went to younger child (friendlier school by far) and I wrote teachers to let them know if my conflict and give a heads up that I might reach out soon if I had any questions after getting DH summary.

I missed it this year because we had Covid. The teacher was very nice and did a phone call with me. Not all teachers are so stingy with their parental interactions.
