Parents’ Guide

When you send your child to a foreign country for school, it is only natural to have worries. But we can assure you that your child is in the best hands. SOC offers a safe, caring environment – a true “soft landing” to Canada.

我们掌握着敏锐感受孩子情感需求，充分理解他们作为一个离家很远的孩子，教会他们成长为一个年轻的成年人，倾听他们的意见并且参与他们的决定，帮助他们保持着最高的学术和品德标准。

根据我们以往的经验，我们发现有些孩子家长会低估他们孩子适应能力。现在的孩子都很机灵，可以快速反馈，快速学习并且快速适应新环境。

作为学生家长，我还能做些什么？

出发之前

我们建议您跟孩子在出发前好好聊一聊以下几件事：

• 生活开销和预算，特别是持续性开销比如手机话费
• 您对孩子行为准则和学习成绩的期待
• 生涯规划
• 关于住在校内和校外的不同选项 – 优势和劣势

关注孩子的学习进度

学生到学校之后的一周内，会被注册在枫林学生信息系统里。每一个孩子的家长都会收到一个专属的登录名和登录密码，以便他们登录枫林学生信息系统，以查看孩子的出勤率，课堂成绩，考试成绩和教师评语。

鼓励培养健康的习惯

Encourage your kids to eat healthy foods, exercise, get sufficient rest and stay alert to any changes in their health.  Also encourage them to speak to their teachers and guidance counselor if they have any issues or worries. Their wellbeing is critical to a successful academic journey.

保持联系

We encourage you to stay in regular contact with your children by email, text, messaging apps and telephone.  It is important that they continue to feel your support and presence, even though you are far away.
