How and when we communicate with parents makes a huge difference on their perception of the teachers, staff, and school their child attends.

This session will provide teachers with a framework to deliver good news and especially the bad or tough news in a way that the parent leaves the conversation knowing we care for their student and have a plan to help them. We will cover how to have effective conversations with parents when a student is struggling academically or behaviorally.
