All members of the school community are needed to provide the best possible education


ISM students will be more successful in achieving desired outcomes if parents:

•    Help instill student pride, confidence and a positive attitude in their school and their teachers.  

• Support school policies on behavior and attendance.

• Provide the time and environment for students to complete homework.  

• Encourage students to take responsibility for completion of all homework assignments. 

• Be cognizant of and communicate to teachers about the level of difficulty students experience with homework.

• Initiate and encourage discussions with students on local, world or family issues, in a manner that significantly engages students and stimulates thinking.  

• Bring problems, concerns, and criticisms directly to the appropriate teacher or administrator for clarification or resolution. 

• In so far as possible, take an active role in PTA, volunteer activities, and school events. 
  

• Share and convey honestly special problems students have had or are experiencing regarding learning, behavior, emotional problems, and changes in the family situation (divorce, separations, death, birth of a sibling, etc.).

• Dedicate time and thought to the continual improvement of ISM.
