Ep. #93 – Be Evolved: What to Ask at your Child’s Parent Teacher Conference

The teacher says your child is kind, bright, and doing well, and then there’s “just one thing.”

In this episode of Be Evolved, Mary Miele and Becky Reback talk through how to prepare before a parent-teacher conference, what to ask while you’re there, and how to leave with one shared plan.

Drawing on Becky’s experience as an educator, learning specialist, administrator, and parent, they explore how to prepare before a conference, ask questions that go beyond grades and test scores, and better understand executive functioning, independence, and classroom challenges.

Parents will discover how to involve their children in the process, collaborate with teachers, and leave with a realistic support plan instead of unnecessary worry.

Listen for encouraging, actionable guidance to help make the next parent-teacher conference more productive and empowering.
