Home Visits

Conference time is quickly approaching and I am so excited to meet with you about your child’s progress.  I believe that building a strong, positive relationship with your child is the most important factor in advancing his or her learning.  One way I build this relationship is by doing home visits for conferences.  A home visit is where I come to your home and share your child’s progress.  This opportunity allows your child to share with me some of their favorite possessions as well as a chance to meet with your family in your own setting.  
It will be a quick snapshot into your child’s life at home.  You do not need to plan anything extra for this visit.  The visit will be around 15 minutes. I understand that this can bring about lots of questions. Under the parents tab, there is a "Home Visit FAQ" where I answer many questions you may have and provide you with some anecdotes of previous home visit experiences.
To schedule your home visit, please click the "Home Visit Sign Up" below. If for some reason home visits or my schedule will not work for your family, please contact me and we can work out other arrangements.  Thank you for helping me make your child’s learning at JTSD the best it can be by allowing us this amazing opportunity.
