Communication Information
Communication is important at Finch.  Since Finch is a bilingual campus, all communication to parents is provided in English and Spanish.  Our methods of communication include:

  • Weekly communication from the teacher by newsletter, e-mail or Parent calls let parents know what is going on in the classrooms.
  • The campus newsletter, Falcon Focus, is sent home weekly and emailed.
  • Written flyers and communication are sent home in Wednesday Folders.
  • Reminders and information about important events are communicated as needed through Parent calls.
  • Parent conferences and curriculum nights communicate academic expectations.
  • The Finch Website is an important method of communication.  Current activities, resource information, contact information, and campus calendars are just a few of the resources located on the Finch website.
