Re: How to tell parents about their kids
actually we dont sell the uniforms..we jsut tell them that they have to wear green bottoms (pants/skirt) and a white shirt (but no pics on the shirt). so a lot of the boys wear on army green pants and white button up shirt or tshirt. some girls wear green pants while some girls wear green skirts (they they had gotten sewn or bought).
They all have to wear white topi or hijab. Otherwise they are confined to sitting with the Shaykh (or my husband) for the whole day instead of sitting with their friends.
we are pretty good with the uniform..dont have too many issues…there is the odd kid that doesnt wear it..but otherwise alhumdulillah its fine.
i think the biggest issue is attendance and commitment. We see a lot of kids register and join the class, but after a couple of weeks, their attendance is random and it effects the whole class sometimes, since they come after months at a time.
we shoudl start a whoel new topic/thred about islamic school ideas/suggestions.
Do that Afshi! I mean start a thread on that topic.
In our school, attendance isn’t an issue much. The kids are eager to come in and enjoy school. It’s mainly the haggling on tuition costs, bad hygiene, parents not getting involved in kids progress…that type of stuff.
