PARENT COMMUNICATION

At RHP, we know that the best early learning occurs when schools and families work in partnership, and thoughtful communication about what happens at school is a key aspect of our approach. Individual families hear about their child’s learning through classroom visits, phone calls and check-in meetings throughout the year. We also document individual growth in digital portfolios that are sent home in late spring: these aim to capture each child’s unique experience over the course of the school year. Click here to see a sample portfolio.

Additionally, teachers post blogs 3-5 times a week to invite parents into their child's world at school. You can explore some sample classroom and specialist (music, art, science) blogs from the 2021-2022 school year below.
