The goal of both parents and teachers in a conference is to work in partnership to optimize for a student’s success in school. Here’s a list of 10 simple suggestions for parents to make the most of the time they spend with teachers. (p.s. There’s a little prep work worth doing, so don’t leave this to read ‘til the morning of!)

1. Talk to your child beforehand. Find out if there is anything he or she would like you to bring up in the conference. 
2. Make notes ahead of time. And because time can pass quickly, be sure to discuss important things first
