[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]While I don't think the first name thing would be a deal breaker for us if we preferred a school overall, I would not consider it an added benefit. Could someone explain the philosophy behind it and why it is a preferred approach at the schools that use it. Most of what has been posted thus far is that it is not a negative, but presumably the school feels there is a benefit or they wouldn't do it. So why is it a positive?[/quote] Here is an interesting conversation between teachers regarding their perceptions of the use of first vs. last names: https://www.edutopia.org/discussion/should-students-address-teacher-hisher-first-name[/quote]
