Willie Price has an open door policy for our parents. We encourage you to visit and/or make presentations to the children. If you would like to present a tradition, hobby, or skill, please discuss it with your child’s teacher.
Until children are accustomed to visits, they will often change their behavior when their parent is in the school. Visiting parents should try not to interrupt the classroom routine and should encourage their children to continue to abide by the rules of the classroom. If you are unclear about the routine or rules, please ask the teacher for clarification. If your child is having difficulty with your visit, teachers will make suggestions to ease the situation. We want your visit to be pleasant for you, and your child, and the class, and we will make every effort to assist you.
Your child may not want you to leave at the end of your visit. This is very common, and stress may be avoided by preparing your child for the first few visits. On the day you plan to come, explain to your child when you are coming, how long you will stay, when and where you are going when you leave, and when you will return. The separation problem will diminish quickly if you are positive about your planned visit and follow through with your routine each time.
