There are few things more important for parents than choosing an elementary school for your child. Any institution you will consider will certainly present its best qualities; therefore, you will need to ask important questions to determine which one is right for you and your child.

Successful education depends on effective parent-teacher communication. Beyond academic success, parent-student communication will have a profound impact on how a child matures into adulthood as well.
For at least 180 days each year, your children divide the majority of their time between role models and mentors. A child’s primary mentors are parents, guardians, siblings, and extended family. There is no one who will impact your child’s life as much as you. At the same time, your child will spend most of the time they are not with you at school with teachers, faculty, and counselors. For Christian parents, pastors, Sunday school teachers, and other mentors will be there to help them grow.
As a parent, it is vital to maintain excellent and consistent communication with your child’s mentors and role models.
