Parent Information
June 16, 2025
Brock Corydon School maintains ongoing communication with parents/guardians throughout the school year in the following manner:
- Telephone calls
- Parent/teacher/student meetings
- Classroom visitations
- Email/notes home
- Student led conferences/tri-conferences
- Written report cards
Parents/guardians can best support their child's learning by:
- Speaking with teachers about any questions or concerns they might have
- Taking the time to visit the classroom and gain a better understanding of what their child is doing
Parents/guardians are informed as early as possible when students are:
- Experiencing difficulty and the strategies for dealing with them
- Unable to cope with the designated curricula, and need an adapted or modified programming
- Parents/guardians are informed in writing, generally by the third reporting period, if a change in program is being considered for the following year
Parents/guardians can help their children be successful at school by being supportive and positive about school work done at home. There are several ways to do this:
- Provide a comfortable, quiet place with a good light and away from distractions
- Set aside a regular time for homework or studying
- Ensure supplies are at hand
- Be available to help your child stay on task
- Read to your child regularly (even in the upper grades)
- Promote independence, "Help", but don't "Do"
- Be an interested, attentive audience
- Talk to your child's teachers if you have any questions or concerns
- Help ensure work is returned to school
