[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids are in upper elementary school. Most of my emails to the teacher are administrative (e.g. kid is out sick) beyond that, I maybe email once or twice a year. Yet I know some people seem to be in frequent communication with teachers. Am I unusual? Should I be emailing more? Or if you’re regularly in contact is it about specific issues?[/quote]

Uh, never. I didn’t know this was a thing people did.

Kid is sick I call the office. I see the teacher at conferences. I will reply if the contact me. But why would I email a teacher otherwise? Don’t do this![/quote]

Why bother calling the office if they’re sick? It’s not excused and they get an absence either way. I hate dealing with the front office admins. They’re just mean. I do message the teacher to let her know what’s up because they get concerned. [/quote]

Why would sick not be excused with a note?  Also if a child just doesn't show up, the school will follow up to make sure you know they are not there.  Imagine not knowing your child was missing till they did not get off the bus at the end of the day.[/quote]
