[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you that frequently email, before you do, pause and ask yourself: If this was 1990 and email didn’t exist, would whatever you want to email have warranted a phone call to the office and a message left for the teacher to return your call? If it doesn’t rise to that extent- don’t send the email.  There are conferences twice per year form checking in on things [/quote]
That's not the standard.  When I was a kid, there were a lot of things where my mom would have sent a note with me to school.  Those are all by email now.  So if my kid is getting picked up early for a dr appointment or is taking the bus instead of a car on Wednesday, I send an email.  That's how teachers have told us to communicate with them.  No call back needed.[/quote]

Agreed. And teachers can deal with the email when it's convenient for them so it's a win-win.

My kid sees a medical specialist for an issue and I send emails once or twice a month to let the teacher know about the timing of those. So I guess these add up. But most are just an FYI and I don't even expect a response.[/quote]
