5420B - PARENT-TEACHER CONFERENCES

The parent-teacher conference can play a significant role in the education of our students in three (3) important ways:

1. providing the teacher with vital information from parents that will strengthen the plans and strategies the teacher uses with a student
2. helping parents understand more clearly what the school and the teacher are trying to accomplish with a student, what is required for students to accomplish such results, and what the parent can do to facilitate the process
3. building a strong home-school partnership that has implications for support of school programs beyond particular classroom or grade.
