[quote=Anonymous]I went to GDS. Calling teachers by first names is just not that big a deal. A teacher is a teacher and whether you call them by their first name by Mr. or Ms. or Mrs., at the end of the day kids are going to respect, pay deference or ridcule a teacher based on the same factors that have influenced teacher/student relations for centuries. I will say the one awkward thing is figuring out that some parents did not want to be addresssed by their first names. I later discovered that is always gonig to be an issue with some parents saying, "Please call me by first name" and others "Please don't" [/quote]
