Parent Teacher Home Visits

Parent Teacher Home Visits, or PTHV, will be taking place next week, September 16-20. PTHV are optional for parents to coordinate with teachers. However, we encourage parents to participate as it strengthens relationships, shifts mindsets and improves student outcomes. Teachers meet with parents to discuss goals for students as well as to get to know the whole family. Families should reach out to teachers if they wish to participate and have not heard from their student’s teacher. PTHV are informal and do not have to take place in a family’s home. Visits can be held in a public space if the family prefers!
