I would also like to know this.


"Hi teacher, my child is out today - just wanted to let you know!"

"Hi teacher, my child is having some tough times with situation x....if you notice y, please let me know"

"Hi teacher, we will be out of town starting on ____, please let us know if there is anything our child needs to work on while they are out..."

"Hi teacher, my child is starting to work with a tutor, do you mind if I put you in contact with them?"

(reluctantly) "Hi teacher, would you mind filling out this recommendation for private school" - this is acceptable but please keep in mind that if you are at a school where students typically move to private/need recs this can be a heavy burden

These are just a few off the top of my head.



So it's not appropriate to ask about curriculum or what is being taught?


This is in the VDOE website in detail. Go there and review- that is what we are teaching.


So teachers don't want parents to ask about the things being taught to their children? This is why Youngkin won.


Are you afraid to talk to your child? They should be able to tell you. Teachers don’t have time to tell you day by day what they are doing


Oh, I already know. They are teaching a lot of, "I don't remember."

See, I talk to my child!


Sounds like a you problem. Look in their bag. Make a little effort. It’s your kid not mine

Then we are going to believe everything they say.

It’s not that we don’t want you to ask, but there is a whole website dedicated to publishing this information. Go there, take some initiative.

They don’t want to talk to you either.
