Guidelines to a Positive Parent Visitation to the Classroom
Parents:
Welcome to our school and your child’s classroom. As we encourage parent involvement in our school, please keep in mind that when you are a visitor in the classroom, instruction is taking place and disruptions should be kept to a minimum. To insure that your visit is supportive of our learning environment, please follow the guidelines listed below.
Also if you would like to volunteer in the classroom, you may contact your classroom teacher or PTA. We have a Parent Center that parents and younger children are welcome to utilize between 7:15am to 3:30pm every day. We appreciate you.
Thank You

Welcome to our school and your child’s classroom. As we encourage parent involvement in our school, please keep in mind that when you are a visitor in the classroom, instruction is taking place and disruptions should be kept to a minimum. To insure that your visit is supportive of our learning environment, please follow the guidelines listed below.
- Sign in at school office before going to the classroom. Bring valid ID.
- Turn off pagers and cell phones.
- Enter quietly and take a seat where designated or in the back of the room.
- Food and drink are prohibited.
- Do not converse with your child or hover near their desk.
- Do not involve children in the classroom in conversation. Your presence alone can be a distraction to many children.
- If you would like to have a conversation or conference with the teacher, please schedule a separate time to talk with her/him. Since this is instructional time, do not involve the teacher in a conversation that takes his or her attention away from the students.
- Please limit your visit to a reasonable amount of time. (Recommendation is one hour or less)
- Younger children may not accompany parents in the classroom visit.
Also if you would like to volunteer in the classroom, you may contact your classroom teacher or PTA. We have a Parent Center that parents and younger children are welcome to utilize between 7:15am to 3:30pm every day. We appreciate you.
