You should let the grade 3 parents know that their support of T. Ben will do more good than anything else. As you saw last last year with me and the lack of support from someof the parents, it did more damage to their child education. Once the bond between the students and teacher is damaged; the students education suffers.
I am excited about this year and looking forward to a new year. I even have a few students that I have taught their brothers!
