Summary:[...]you want that response to promote the positive aspects of your school. Follow these suggestions for making social media connections with parents meaningful: * Ask for an opinion about how a situation was handled. * Share specific comments about a lesson, and ask parents how they might have responded if they had been a student in that setting. * Present a behavior concern, such as being tardy to school, and ask parents to suggest ways to improve this behavior. * Promote teaching strategies and explain how to incorporate these at home, which will help support students with extending learning.
