Infant Jesus High School

A MESSAGE TO PARENTS

Dear Parents,

  1. “Children cannot be made good by making them happy but they can be made happy by making them good.”
  2. In order to secure all that is best in the education of your child, the maximum co-operation between parents and the school authorities is desired. We earnestly recommend that parents or guardians should look into their children’s school calendar everyday and see to it that the lessons and homework assigned for the next day are done. Remarks made in the calendar should be seen and acknowledged.
  3. In order to develop all around personality of the students, the school organizes various co-curricular and extracurricular activities such as competitions, picnics, field-trips, annual sports and gathering. Please encourage your ward to take maximum interest in these activities and participate in the same.
  4. If you feel that your children do not make the desired progress, the Principal may please be consulted. Criticism of your children’s teachers or school in their presence should be studiously avoided, because it causes them to lose their respect for their teachers with a consequent failure to learn from that teacher. If you have a legitimate complaint, see the Principal early.
  5. As your children advance in age, guide them to become resourceful and useful members of both home and country. Encourage self help in work and study. They should be taught at home to keep and manage the time well, polish their own shoes, arrange their books, Keep the time-table and the required study materials ready for the next day etc. Children should be encouraged to cultivate the habit of neatness. The formulation of such habits early in life inculcates in them the idea of dignity of work.
  6. Withdrawal of your child from a class for mere social function is not recommended, because it retards their progress in school and minimizes their respect for the regular hard work.
  7. As the medium of instruction is English children should be encouraged to speak English.
