• Classroom Experiences are communicated by:  Daily take home sheets for teachers and families.  Families communicate information on these sheets so that everyone coming in contact with children stay informed; ParentCentral so that all teachers stay informed of communication history; Portfolio of children’s work; Weekly Family Newsletters sent Friday mornings
• SBI Family Information Board/ Family Center located outside the classroom communicates last minute teacher/schedule changes, family participation signup sheets, and reminders.  Each Family Center displays the classroom’s daily schedule, current lesson plans and letter.
• Center Reminders/Happenings/Events communicated on ParentCentral’s Calendar, Weekly Classroom Newsletters, Website, Flyers to share with Friends and Families, and Foyer Display
• Children’s Development and Progress Check Points are held quarterly in October, February, May, and August.  In October and May, we request every family attend a 15 minute conference that we are trying to hold before/after families work schedules.  In February and August, information is distributed and families can request a conference.
• Conflict Resolutions are communicated during pull out conferences with the teachers (and Director if necessary) at the client’s convenience so that teachers remain engaged with children at all times.  Teachers utilize a Conflict Resolution Sheet to document their challenges and turn them into the Director.  The Director will then schedule time for all parties necessary to resolve challenges.
• Behavioral Challenges will be communicated daily with incident/accident forms and also problem solved within the classrooms.  If we need to strategize and create behavior support plans or request family support, we will discuss this during pull out conferences with the teachers and director at the client’s convenience so that teachers remain engaged with children at all times.
• Administrative Communication:  Resources, unresolved classroom challenges, program issues, and health challenges are discussed with our Director, Miss Lee Ann Balta at llbalta@smallblessingsinc.com or at ext. 115
