Disappointment every single year. Parent teacher conference time is a time I dread. Never good news. Just more frustration and moms in tears.
Imagine my amazement this year when I heard, “He has found his way!” Victory!!!
Sandy was thrilled, proud and beaming when she shared the teacher’s words. This year was different. “The parent teacher conference couldn’t have been better!” she bellowed over the phone. Its the most rewarding, satisfying, validating feeling when all of the hard work pays off.
Why?
Because, last summer the one on one training Evan did to correct his underlying learning issues was so effective that his teacher could tell a difference. Both his classroom behavior and academic achievement improved by leaps and bounds. Just last year his teacher had asked the parents if they had spoken with their doctor about medication. This year everything is different.
