WHAT SHOULD I KNOW ABOUT STUDENT CONFERENCES?
"Home and school — everyone shares the goal of helping children learn and feel successful. Research has proven that when parents and teachers work together, everyone benefits: Students tend to earn higher grades, perform better on tests, attend school more regularly, have better behavior, and show more positive attitudes toward themselves and toward school. School programs that include strong parent involvement are more effective. Yet, collaboration between parents and teachers is not always a smooth process."
This quote is from an article offered by the National Association of School Psychologists. It is important right now because this week, teachers are hosting conferences. Here is the full article; it has some good ideas for what to expect at conferences and how to work with your child's teacher(s) in the best way possible.
