Sharing Hopes and Dreams for My Daughter
Parent, Anna Williams
"I had heard about the Parent Teacher Home Visit Program so I was excited when my 7 year old daughter, Jerica's, teacher, Ms. Rose, at Sun Valley Elementary School, contacted me to schedule a visit. I thought it was cool.
Jerica was very excited and showed her around our home. She was especially excited to show her our fish.
As a result of the visit, I feel more connected about what is going on with Jerica in the classroom. It has opened up Ms. Rose and my communication. I know that the teacher has a lot of students that she is responsible for, so this helped us know each other.
She asked me about my goals and dreams for my daughter. It was good to be able to share my hopes for Jerica.
Since the home visit, my daughter is more motivated to read at home and has been putting more effort into her homework. I have a hard time helping her without giving her the answers, but now I don't need to as she is working harder.
I am grateful for the Parent Teacher Home Visit Program."
