CC4.2 We have access to many tools that we are not using to their fullest potential for
collaboration and communication, like Google Hangouts, Skype, Edmodo, etc. !
CC4.3 Translators for documents, IEPs etc. might not be accessible or utilized. We are not
aware of all the district's capabilities and expectations of regarding translation of documents
into parents' native languages.!
CC5.1: Baseline expectations for teachers and their communication with parents need to be
defined at the elementary and middle school levels. There is inconsistent use of social media
to communicate with parents. Clear expectations from the school district in regards to
communication with parents is needed. Methods throughout schools across the district for
the community to rely upon to gain more information about their schools is inconsistent.!
