[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for the great suggestions!  I have to admit, I feel nervous already b/c DD's school is doing assessments this week and DD has no idea how to read.

One more thing- she was adopted as an infant.  My husband is Caucasian and DD and I are not (our younger child is bio and is mixed), so it's not a particularly conspicuous adoption.  I don't mind sharing this with her teachers, but only if there's a need to do so.  Thoughts?[/quote]

How is the adoption relevant to the classroom?[/quote]

OP here. I don't know if it is relevant or not, so that's why I'm asking. In the adoption community, many parents think that it's necessary for teachers/schools to know.[/quote]

I would think it would be relevant if your daughter is working through issues related to the adoption, or if she was a particularly special needs adoption where the adoption might have an impact on her behavior (drug baby, abused child, health issues, etc).  But if your child is your typical adopted child, there is probably no need to bring it up.[/quote]
