Get a great start to new school year Teachers: Parents play key role in child’s education

BY CHERÉ COEN Contributing writer

School has started in Acadiana so we asked award-winning educators for advice for parents in helping students achieve year-round success.

“A new school year brings much excitement and anticipation,” said Lauren Duhon, first-grade teacher at Martial F. Bileaud Elementary and one of the 2019 Teacher of the Year recipients by Lafayette Parish School System. “We get wrapped up in the supplies, shoes and the perfect first day picture and we often lose sight of the most important part.”

Duhon believes that a parent’s most important tool for their child’s success is establishing an open line of communication with their child’s teacher.

“Letting the teacher know the goals and expectations they have is extremely important,” she said. “By doing this, you set the tone for the entire year.”

Duhon suggests being open and receptive with your child’s teacher.

“As teachers, we do everything we can to meet the needs of all students and the outcomes are always greater when both parents and teachers are on the same side,” she explained. “As a new year begins I hope we all enter it with open minds, high expectations and the mindset that anything is achievable with hard work.”

Kacey Edgar-Jackson, a seventh-grade English language arts teacher at David Thibodaux STEM Magnet Academy and the 2019 District Middle School Teacher of the Year, urges parents to set up a positive environment for their children at home.

“Ask them how their day was, check in with them,” is her advice.

Edgar-Jackson reiterated the need to be in communication with teachers.

“Students that know that their parents/ guardians and their teachers are on the

L. Leo Judice first-grade teacher Lauren Duhon gets hugs from her students after being surprised with the news that she was selected as the District Elementary Teacher of the Year in January.

“The more you trust your children’s teacher the more a child will feel comfortable and secure at school. Never be afraid to contact us or be a part of our learning journey.”

KACEY EDGAR-JACKSON, English language arts teacher same team for their success, the more equipped they will be to succeed,” she explained. “On this same note, you have to trust us. We love your kids, and we want the best for them. We do not always have time to stop in the middle of the lesson or the day to immediately respond to every email, text or call, but that is because we are fully engaged in making sure your kids are getting the best instruction.”

Amanda Shackleford, English language arts instructional leader in the Lafayette School System, suggests signing up for any communication services that the teacher has in place. For example, Class Dojo, Remind 101, Google Classroom, etc.

“This is usually an easy way for teachers to get information out in one easy step,” she said. “Stay in the loop and sign up when you get the information to do so.”

Shackleford also suggests setting up a time and place for homework to be done as soon as the child returns home.

“Set a timer for 30 minutes and designate that time daily to make it a part of your child’s routine,” Shackleford explained. “Even if there’s no homework, there is still material that can be reviewed and books that can be read. This is also a time to get any papers signed or important information from the teacher

to the parent.”

Joining the PTA/PTC, taking a class with your children or showing up at school also lets children know “you are ready and willing to be a part of your child’s learning process,” said Edgar-Jackson.

“The more you trust your children’s teacher the more a child will feel comfortable and secure at school,” Edgar-Jackson said. “Never be afraid to contact us or be a part of our learning journey. We want the best for your kids, and you are the ones that know them the best. At the end of the day I believe that every child is not only capable of learning, but that they deserve to learn, unencumbered, from those with a passion for teaching.

And, [teachers] need the child and the parents to be involved in this process.”

Notes from Bill

Bill LeBlanc

is president of the Acadian Home Builders Association.

His column appears weekly in Acadiana Homes.

Accessory dwelling units gain popularity While single-family homes remain the most desired type of dwelling among home buyers, alternative living spaces are making headway. Accessory dwelling units, also known as “granny flats,” “mother-in-law suites” or “secondary dwelling units,” are ideal for individuals seeking out a non-traditional living space. ADUs are self-contained living units with their own kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. You can find ADUs on the same grounds or attached to a single-family home.

Why are ADUs gaining in popularity?

Here are a few reasons to explain their growing interest.

AUTONOMOUS: ADUs are attractive for individuals who are seeking independence but can benefit from support.

Aging parents, young adults who are in a housing transition, or a person living with disabilities are most likely to seek out ADUs. AFFORDABLE: In some cases, this type of dwelling positivity impacts both the home owner and the occupant. Individuals living in an ADU pay less in market rent compared to other housing options in the area and home owners can benefit from the extra monthly income.

ACCOMMODATING: Dramatic changes to a neighborhood are not required with ADUs. This type of living space often fits in seamlessly with the local aesthetics. ADUs don’t require new infrastructure, public investments and don’t add to the density of neighborhoods.

ENVIRONMENTAL: Units added on to an existing property as a backyard cottage or apartment over the garage are smaller. Therefore, ADUs require less energy, material and waste during construction, and regular maintenance of

METRO MEDIA

Whether attached to a single-family home or free standing, accessory dwelling units are attractive options for a variety of reasons. the space.

As with many housing trends, the concept of ADUs is continuously evolving.

Many states and localities across the country are pushing for wider acceptance of ADUs. For some areas, ADUs

Acadian Home Builders Association

are part of the solution to address high housing costs, limited land available for development and increased interest in multigenerational living. Before you add an ADU to your property, it’s best to contact a professional builder or re-

modeler who is familiar with local permitting and regulations.

To find a professional who can help you create your perfect ADU, contact Acadian Home Builders Association at www.acadianhba.com.
