[quote=Anonymous]Other things that I've seen at other great schools: - the principal and other senior staff being at the door every morning to greet the kids and parents as they arrive - everyone in the entire school knows every child and every family - kids respect each other's differences and treat each other kindly (no bullying or teasing) - regular communication with parents such as weekly and monthly newsletters from teachers and admin, as well as updates at other times - immediate calls home if your child is hurt on the playground, even if it turns out to be minor (usually the case) - an active, engaged and effective PTA - parents who show up to school events - beautiful classrooms and a well cared for building - school gardens that are used as a learning tool for all kids[/quote]
