In this episode, Becky Reback is diving into one of the most universal parenting experiences: parent-teacher conferences.

We're sharing a step-by-step approach to making conferences more than just a 10-minute check-in. This is about being the leader of your child’s learning life — without making it weird or adversarial. We’ll talk about what schools are responsible for, what we as parents bring to the table, and how to meet in the middle.

We’ll walk through how to prepare, participate, and follow up in a way that builds strong collaboration with teachers and sets your child up for real success.

Takeaways:

• How to evaluate and engage your child before conferences.
• The “buzzwords” teachers use and how to read between the lines.
• How to follow up like a pro without turning into that parent.
