The first section of the teacher’s website, Ms. Christie at Chiles High School, was a bio about her and why she chose what she teaches. She also includes her email address, phone number, and the degrees and certifications that she has earned that relate to her teaching. The second section of her website includes helpful links and documents such as the form to sign up for her class or skip a section of it to get to a more advanced level. The final sections include the links to parent letters and class contracts required at the start of the course.

Teachers can also use Microsoft Teams or other video communication applications to stay in touch with parents.
