[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The open houses before school starts are for children and parents to meet the teachers, see the classrooms and so on. Back to School night in APS is for parents. There's often a prerecorded video from the principal, the teachers will walk through the curriculum, often there's separate time to do a quick meet and greet with the school counselor or RTG or specials teachers. Some schools especially in lower SES areas have childcare available since they know parents might not be able to come otherwise. Every now and then you'll see a parent with a kid or two in tow but it is an event for adults.[/quote] [b]What does SES have to do with whether or not people have childcare?[/b] There are high SES areas with two working parents that also could benefit from childcare - it isn’t always easy to find a babysitter and not everyone, independent of wealth, has a nanny on demand. [/quote] Are you joking?[/quote]
