Westbrook Christian An Open Letter to Parents Concerned about their Children If you are concerned about the experiences your child is having at school, you are not alone. Sending your child to school every day is a difficult job for any parent, but especially hard when you feel your child is not thriving. You want what is best for your child, but nothing is more important to your child’s future than his or her education. No school is right for every child. The ideal school would take your child’s individual strengths – the God-given gifts that make your child unique – and nurture those strengths.
