Discovery Charter School
Classroom Visitations/Observations
2008-2009
Thursday morning is the time that has been arranged for classroom visitations/observations. Please come into the office to sign in and obtain a Visitor badge. The following procedures have been established by the Curriculum, Instruction, & Assessment (CIA) Committee:
Contact the teacher no later than the Monday before the Thursday visitation/observation (this assures that the class will not be having a different schedule for that day).
The visitation/observation could be scheduled for up to 60 minutes (longer periods of time may be disruptive to the students’ curriculum). If a longer period is requested, the parent/guest, teacher, and the administrator would meet to discuss the need.
Parents/Guests would sign in/out at the School Office and obtain a Visitor’s Badge.
A parent/guest conference could be scheduled to follow-up the visitation/observation. It would NOT be appropriate to talk with the teacher during the visitation/observation and instructional time.
Thank you for your cooperation and valuing Discovery Charter students’ instructional time.
The above procedures do NOT apply to regular, scheduled classroom volunteers.
Those day(s) and time(s) would have been arranged previously.
