[quote=Anonymous]I email when I think it's necessary. Pretty much all emails are of the FYI variety. Usually commonplace stuff (absence or early release), very occasionally something more serious (like that a grandparent died, so they are aware of why DC might be behaving a bit different). The worse is having to email about any kind of classroom problem, I'll do almost anything to avoid this because I can sense that teachers hate it but sometimes it's impossible -- you have to let them know. Once it was regarding my kid in K who was having accidents on the way home daily because there was a bathroom issue that made them hold it all day. Another time there was a conflict with another student that was escalating during recess and involved concerning behavior and the teacher needed to be aware so it could be monitored and the kids separated as necessary. It is frustrating when you email the teacher and don't hear back at all. I am fine if the response is short or if it takes several days. But yes, sometimes you need to talk to the teacher about something and it's annoying when they are totally non-responsive.[/quote]
