Make the most out of teacher meetings this year–learn what to expect, how to bring the right information, and know what questions to ask.

Details:With school underway, parents and caregivers will soon have the first of many opportunities to connect directly with teachers. With so many moving parts and things to remember, we thought it would be helpful to host a webinar for caregivers so that you can get an understanding of the typical types of meetings that you might need to attend this school year as well as strategies for maximizing these opportunities. In the webinar, our panelists will provide an overview of parent-teacher collaboration and how to optimize communication during the school year—as well as what to expect within each meeting, including Parent-Teacher Conferences, Student-Led Conferences, Student Study Team Meetings (SSTs), 504 Plan Meetings, and Individualized Education Plan Meetings (IEPs). We’ll cover the expected timing of the meeting, the objective, who attends (and why), how to best prepare and also help you with what to bring to the meeting. Our mission is to help you get the most out of the time that you spend with your learner’s educational team so that you can set your learner up for success!The webinar will consist of a 30-minute panelist discussion followed by an opportunity for attendees to directly interact with the speakers in a live Q&amp;A session.About the SpeakersThis webinar is presented by Jess Corinne, the Head of Educational Services for Learnfully.
