Communication is Key!

In an effort to improve communication in The Commons Community, we have implemented a couple of strategies.

The first is the student binder. Each student has a binder that has sections for each of his/her courses, a "homework" and "papers need to be signed" sheet protector, a flyer/information pocket, and a "remove these papers pocket". The expectation is that students take their binder to each course each day. It should go home each afternoon and come back each morning. Families should set up a home procedure for using the notebook to keep everyone informed and to stay on top of assignments and forms that are due.

The second strategy is our Commons Google calendar. The calendar can be accessed on our blog. We will post events there as we know them, so that we can all again stay on top of assignments and forms that are due. For your convenience, the ALA calendar can also be accessed from our blog.

The students are learning to manage their time, responsibilities and belongings. Communication amongst them, their parents and teachers will enhance that opportunity.

As always, we appreciate and encourage your input.
