[quote=Anonymous]I introduce myself to parents by first name. I always know several families in the grade from outside of school (who call me by my first name) and I don't want other families to feel like they are on different footing with me. Even if they choose to call me Ms. X, it feels more equitable to have offered. For kids, I insist they call me and every other adult in the building Mr./Ms X. Maintenance staff, cafeteria, volunteers, etc are addressed the same as teachers.[/quote]
