HOME SCHOOL COMMUNICATION
SELC staff intends to make this program year an enjoyable one for both children and families . Regular communication between the program staff and the family is essential to a strong partnership . Staff meet with the parents at SELC and for Head Start Students at the home ( public health data dependent ). Phone calls are made to give information , remind families of meetings , or to invite families to activities . Newsletters , calendars , memo and other information about program activities and community events are shared via a weekly SMORE newsletter , posted on TEAMS , and / or sent home in backpacks and through school messenger .
In case of emergency , families will be notified immediately . It is mandatory that the office has up-to-date home , work , and emergency telephone numbers always . Please notify the office of any changes in any of these numbers . Every family must have two emergency numbers . ( Emergency contacts could be relatives , neighbors , friends , etc .)
