31 Years of Frontline Experience Working for You
Parent-Teacher Conference Advocacy Support
Navigate Your Child’s School Journey with Professional Advocacy
As a career educator and retired school administrator with over 31 years of experience, I understand that school meetings, curriculum jargon, and data reports can be overwhelming. My Conference Support service provides you with a professional partner to ensure your voice is heard and your child’s needs are met.
This service is designed to help you:
Prepare with Purpose: We break down the grading process, standardized testing results, and curriculum structures so you walk into meetings with clarity.
Master the Tools: Get hands-on guidance for navigating digital gradebook tools and parent portals.
Advocate with Authority: Whether it's an IEP, 504 plan, or a standard parent-teacher conference, I help you translate "school-speak" into actionable goals for student achievement.
Build a Roadmap: From current classroom support to long-term college preparation, we ensure every meeting moves your child closer to their full potential.
Overview of Service
The Process
Step 1: The Strategy Session
We meet for a 30-minute deep dive to review your child’s records, school data, and your specific concerns. We’ll create a clear "Game Plan" and a list of talking points so you feel prepared and confident.
Step 2: The Meeting Advocacy
I join you for the conference (virtually or in person). I act as your professional partner, helping to translate "school jargon," ask the right questions, and ensure the school provides a concrete plan for your child’s success.
Step 3: The Post-Meeting Recap
After the meeting, we’ll touch base to review the school’s promises and set a follow-up timeline. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of the next steps and the peace of mind that your child has a champion.
