How To Have A Successful
Parent / Teacher Conference
What's
All the Hype?
Communication with parents or guardians is an essential for students'
growth and learning. One means of communication is the Parent-Teacher
Conference. It is a time for parents and teacher to discuss a student
in a constructive and beneficial manner. This is not a time for criticism,
anger, blaming, or negativism. Unless there is a tone of genuine concern
for the student and openness to the feelings and thoughts of all present,
there will be no successful outcome. Although the teacher may have an
agenda for having a parent-teacher conference, the parents must have input
in the agenda as it unfolds. The question is: Are you willing to share
the agenda?
