Education is so important for our children and their future. It seems more and more that our schools our having to cut out important school supplies, updated technology and programs because of lack of funds. For this reason many parents and teachers are having to get creative and pitch in to help bring these things back to our schools.
My sons teacher has done a great job at finding ways to save money by using email as a source to contact parents. Each week we know to check our emails unless worked out with the teacher. There is always so much paper being used at school, which can get rather pricey, so having the email as a source to save has been great and convenient.
