Curriculum Day 親師座談 - 家長與老師的雙向溝通

新學年的第二週雖是細雨冷風,加上停車位不好找,一早就見到家長們在各班的親師座談中用心聆聽孩子們的老師準備的內容。

為了能給家長們清楚的教學理念、目標、評分標準與期望,每位班級老師都非常用心地備妥資料,甚至事前練習報告的技巧,好讓家長能了解未來這一學年如何一起為孩子打造快樂的學習環境並達到應有的學習效果。

貼心的行政教育志工為了讓老師專心座談,安排志工一一到教室帶學生到餐廳作活動或功課,教務團隊志工則是先規畫各自要關懷的班級去陪伴,忙著忙著接近中午放學的時間,細雨不再飄下,家長們也在安全團隊愛心爸爸的交通指揮下,順利接走放學的孩子。

雖是短短的三小時上課時間,卻是用滿滿的、溫暖的愛成就的,讓我們互相感恩!

2016學年度歡喜開學 開學歡喜

開學日一大早看到志工及愛心爸爸們既分工又合作,從指揮交通,老師簽到,TA簽到,協助老師搬東西,引位歡迎家長和孩子,到註冊組安排插班和制服的分配,樣樣都配合無間,互相補位。許多幕後的志工整個暑期間都沒有休息,從徵聘老師,培訓教師,採購教科書與文具,協助學生名單整理及規劃開學當天的任務分配,才能讓開學的事情都能在小混亂中順序完成,真的很不容易。

開學日順利過關喔!!!!

當然,新的校區還有很多挑戰,我們也還有一些可以進步的空間,但是看到各位用心當下的神情,就知道我們可以把學校越變越好。

第一天的行政座談,有將近300位的家長參與,我們也感受到家長們的關心與支持。


最後,還是謝謝每個人的用心和承擔,感恩家長起早帶著孩子來上學。
和大家分享一句證嚴法師的靜思語: 勇於承擔才有改變的機會。感恩大家每個星期六來承擔與付出,讓我們的學校越變越好。
