[LM_NET] e-mail for teachers

[Ruth Tennies <retennies@BELLSOUTH.NET>]

I would like to know how other schools handle teacher e-mail. Are teachers required 
to communicate with parents through e-mail?

We are finding that some parents want to communicate with all teachers through 
e-mail and feel that teachers should be required to communicate that way. They say 
that if the school was a business, it would be required. However, some teachers 
balk at the idea of having to check their e-mail often and don't want to deal with 
what could be a lot of correspondence. How are other schools dealing with this?
