Description

Parents need to ask the right questions if they are to learn about their children's schools. Obtaining pertinent knowledge about school programs and procedures helps to avoid confusion and conflict that sometimes arises between the parent and school staff. This reference will provide general background information and important questions for parents to ask their principals. At the end of each list of questions are things to "listen and look for" in the principal's response.

The depth of the principal's responses can help parents gauge the quality of school programs, better understand district policies, and appreciate operating procedures within the school. Through the use of this book, parents will gain a clearer understanding of schools, the rules and regulation under which they operate, and the important role they play in educating their children.

Will be of interest to parents and administrators.
