“The School Family builds connections between families and schools, teachers and teachers, teachers and students, and students and students to ensure the optimal development of all.”
When choosing a school, a child’s needs always come first. What program will best fit my child’s needs? What will help them develop and shine? Will they be loved and cared for?
But a parent’s needs are just as crucial when choosing a school. Modern parenting requires so much, and your child’s school should be a part of your village. At Celebree School of Franklin-Cool Springs, we strive to create a school family, not just an institution for learning.
School Families Communicate
No parent should ever feel they need to jump up and down with a banner to get a teacher’s attention. We foster open communication by creating an environment where all questions are welcome. Parents are encouraged to connect with their child’s teacher at drop-off and pick-up. Last-minute teacher changes due to illness are communicated through our app so parents know what faces they’ll be seeing. Our teachers add thoughtful pictures and captions throughout the day, describing what your child is learning and how they respond to an activity. A member of our admin team is always present when the school is open, so concerns can be addressed in real time. We value our parents above measure, because it’s your trust that enables us to do our job.
School Families Connect
We want to create moments of connection from the moment you step into our doors. Our welcome board includes our families visiting by name, and our new students’ first day is treated as the grand celebration it is. As an admin team, we strive to greet every parent by name each day. We want to know about your family’s lives, the moments that are both big and small.
We also offer families time to connect with each other. This past week, we celebrated our first school-wide event, the Family Feast. This allowed parents from different classes to connect and to put names to the faces their children tell stories about every day. These events foster connections that expand outside our doors as children venture out to local kindergartens.
School Families Support Each Other
As Celebree School of Franklin-Cool Springs continues to grow, our school family grows as well. We plan to foster different opportunities for families to help others. In the new year, we’ll be hosting Cold Weather Clothing Swaps so that families can pass on items they’ve outgrown. We are working with local business partners to facilitate opportunities for families to connect outside our doors with a “Mommy and Me” barre class. We work with local pediatric therapists to connect parents with resources such as CPR Classes or infant feeding informational sessions. We all need a village we can rely on, and your child’s school should be a place of peace and growth.
School Families, for Parents and Kids Alike
While we are in the business of growing people small, the truth is that Celebree School of Franklin-Cool Springs is here for the whole family. We want our parents to feel the same love and support that we bring to a classroom every day. Our hope is that for the many years your child spends learning and growing with us, we offer parents that same care and personalized support. Our school is a family!
