7. Eastlake Middle School
Show interest in your child’s studies by talking to him/her daily about what’s going on in class. Ask what your child is learning and don’t take “nothing” for an answer. Use PowerSchool to look over student progress and Homework Hotline or his/her student planner for details.

8. Eastlake Middle School
Your child will be pushed academically. He/she may experience failure or struggle for the first time. Talk to your child about failure and/or struggles! Learning from one’s mistakes is the best opportunity a kid can have!

9. Eastlake Middle School
Be sure that your child attends school on a regular basis. Even if he/she is absent for illness or another valid reason, he/she needs to keep up with his studies. Ask your child to check in with his/her teachers when he/she returns. Your child needs to be an active participant as well.

10. Eastlake Middle School
Know your child’s friends. Get to know your child’s use of social media and technology. Be proactive with stopping the drama.

11. Eastlake Middle School
Encourage your child to get involved. Take advantage of the clubs and activities that are available. Great opportunity to meet new kids and interact in a setting other than the classroom.

12. Eastlake Middle School
Contact counselors, administrators, and teachers periodically. Come to conferences and events. Be a full partner in your child’s education.
