We had agendas and needed our parents signature every day and the teachers signature or we didn’t get recess. This was like late 2000’s. When tf did parents stop putting in any effort

BRING BACK AGENDAS, we need to teach kids independence and responsibility because we used to write down school events and class assignments and tests

I don’t remember EVER taking an informational form home to my parents unless it was a form that needed to be signed 😂 the only way my parents could contact my teachers was by calling the main office now parents are texting teachers on their cell phones

Adding on to the agenda comments - all through elementary school we were given an agenda at the beginning of every school year and at the end of each day the teacher would take 5-10 minutes to do “agenda time” where they would tell us all the things we needed to write down to tell

Kids need to experience the fear of having to tell their parents at 8pm that they need a board for their science project that’s due tomorrow. It builds character

The crazy thing is that parents have been taught to expect this from us so if we’re not going above and beyond with communication, it’s a problem😭

I HATE ClassDojo. We should not have instant communication like that. We need to go back to signed agendas.

I agree 100% but there’s gonna be parents still blaming the teachers if the children don’t tell them about stuff. You guys can’t win

I remember we all had individual agendas and we needed to write down every single assignment we had to do and we needed to have our guardians sign it everyday to have full credit

It teaches kids they need to be responsible for their own actions. You forget you miss out, you remember you have a good time. You do the work to write things down and communicate with parents.

I remember when contacting parents via text was disrespectful. You sent a note home and it was up to them to remember / look at the note for a reminder. Only contacted parents directly in an emergency.

We had school issued planners that we had to fill out daily, then take home and signed by a parent

i don’t trust my preschoolers to remember to tell their parents after school so i think it depends on the grade!

The texting and emails are getting out of hand. It’s borderline harassment. Sometimes they will text everyone to tell us to check the email they just sent.. it’s getting to the point where will miss important things because they send me so much stuff.

Hot take but I don’t think as a teacher I should have the responsibility of also “having a relationship” with the parents. Like why do I constantly have to talk with parents? Why do I have to phrase things in a positive way to them? I should be able to call them once, tell them the truth, then they immediately should fix the behavior

Paper calendars. Go back to paper calendars. Every kid gets one, you can email it one time a month, post it on the website.
