Read what The Parent Institute says about helping your teen make good decisions.
Are you helping your teen make good decisions?
Missing curfew, hanging around with the wrong crowd, taking risks. Teens don't always make the best choices. Can parents help? Experts say yes.
Take this quiz to see if you're helping your teen make better choices. Answer yes or no.
1. My teen and I have talked about her goals.
2. When my teen has to make a choice, we first figure out the cause of the problem.
3. I help my teen come up with different ways to solve her problems.
4. I have talked with my teen about a problem I had in the past.
5. I help my teen think about he consequences of choices she makes.
How well are you doing?
Each yes answer means you are helping your teen make better decisions. For each no answer, try that idea.
We are now in the second semester and if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact your child's teachers or me.
Ed Okuniewski

ACCESS TO STUDENT DIRECTORY INFORMATION
No Child Left Behind (Section 9528) requires student directory information to be made available to military recruiters and institutions of higher education. Under the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) a student or his/her parents may request the information not be released without prior written consent. Here is the description of the FERPA requirements:
Schools may disclose, without consent, "directory" information such as a student's name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth, honors
and awards, and dates of attendance. However, schools must tell parents and eligible students about directory information and allow parents and eligible students a reasonable amount of time to request that the school not disclose directory information about them. Schools must notify parents and eligible students annually of their rights under FERPA.
If you do not want your student's information released to the military, you must submit a request in writing to Assistant Principal, Ken Milch, at the high school.

Mediocre Semester Grades? How Can You Help Your Student.
You recently received your student’s report card – were you pleased or shocked at what you saw? If it was the latter, don’t worry, there’s still time to help your child improve and learn.
The time you take and the support you provide now will help your teen whether they go to college or workforce training after high school.
After reading your student’s report card, take a breath and talk to your student. You may want to ask:
1. Do you feel this grade reflects your best effort?
2. Did you turn in all your homework on time? If not, what was the penalty for turning in late homework? How can I help you learn to meet deadlines?
3. What is your teacher’s policy about incorrect answers on homework and exams? Will your teacher allow you to turn in the corrected answers for partial or half credit?
4. Do you understand the material? If not, will your teacher meet with you to review and answer questions? Are free tutors available at your school? Do we need to consider hiring a tutor?
5. Do you have any distractions or barriers that keep you from listening, taking notes, or completing homework? How can you avoid them?
6. Can you describe the tests (essay, multiple choice, or other)? What are the best ways to prepare for the exams? What percentage of your grade do tests represent?
Armed with some basic answers from your child, you can formulate a strategy for fostering improvement. For help and free resources, check out the ACT November 2009 Parent Newsletter at http://www.act.org/path/parent/news/1109.html#3 and read the Homework Motivation or Why Go to College website articles, or read the ACT student blog for advice from high school students. |
