Are there any secrets to having a good relationship with my children's teachers? I want to stay on their good sides. -- Friendly Answer: It goes without saying that you should be considerate in all your dealings with their teachers. This means that you make an appointment to talk with them. You should not try to corner them before or after to school, in the classroom or at school events to talk about your children. If there is an urgent matter to discuss, sending a note to school or using email is a good way to contact the teacher. If you can volunteer in a classroom, it is a good way to not only help teachers but to let them see your interest in your children's education. And when a teacher goes out of his or her way to help your child, be sure to say, "Thank you."
