Important figures in DC education
Most parents have dreams of their children excelling in school. They want children that are smart, popular, and well-rounded. In Washington DC parents want the same things for their children. Who are the important figures in our child’s education? Many students may never interact with the principal, unless they are in trouble. Every child in the DC school’s has a teacher that can have either a good or negative impact. Does that mean the teacher is the most important figures in our child’s education? What about parents? How important are parents? Our children depend on us to set the example about their learning habits. Having a place to study, encouraging effective study habits, and supporting healthy homework practices are parents tasks.
Teachers versus parents, as the most important figures, has been debated for years. Children learn despite poor teachers. Having a good teacher usually assures the child and the parent a successful experience. Having a parent that does not value education can cripple the child and the school. Once children are turned off to the process it becomes a very long, hard, and arduous experience. Important figures in our child’s education means finding and supporting everyone that touches their lives.
