K4-5 Student Handbook 23-24.docx

Conferences

The classroom teacher is the person to talk with FIRST about your child’s progress. Conferences with teachers should be arranged by emailing the teacher or through the secretary by calling 662-453-3600. Please schedule school conferences or telephone conferences during the teacher’s daily conference period or after school. Conferences are best held at school where all materials are readily available for reference. We respect the right of privacy for each child and parent and request that you do also. The principal is the person to talk with if you wish to discuss the administration of the school’s policies or rules, or if you have a matter of concern that affects the larger school community. Conferences with the principal may be scheduled at any time between 8:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. on school days. Except in cases of emergency, conferences should be by appointment. Call the school secretary at 662-453-3600 to arrange a conference with the principal. K4 and K5 parents will be contacted regarding required parent-teacher conferences scheduled at the end of the first nine weeks grading period.

Grievance Procedure

If a parent has a complaint about a teacher, school policy, or another student, the following procedure must be followed 1. Contact the teacher involved to schedule a private conference. 2. If not satisfied with the result of the teacher conference, schedule an appointment to discuss the matter with the principal. 3. If still not satisfied, make an appointment to discuss the matter with the Head of School. Parent Visitation and Waiting Area In order to ensure the safest possible environment for Pillow students and staff, all parents and visitors must check in at the elementary office. Please press the Intercom button outside of the main office door to identify yourself to the main office secretary or principal before entering the building. DO NOT GO TO YOUR CHILD’S CLASSROOM . If you are picking your child up early, please sign your student out and wait for him or her in the designated parent waiting area just inside the front door. This will eliminate unnecessary disturbances in the classrooms.
