8. Checklist: Successful Parent
Teacher Conferences
 Be on Time – You only have a short time with your child’s teacher and
other parents are scheduled after you.
 Bring Questions – What would you like to know about classroom,
academic or social happenings? What requests do you have for the
teacher?
 Surface Concerns – What concerns do you have about your child’s
performance? Bring work samples and be prepared with examples.
 Ask for examples – What does your child do well and what needs work?
 Participate – Parent involvement is one of the highest predictors or
student success. Ask how you can help your child better meet the learning
objectives. Explore opportunities for volunteering in the classroom or at
school.
 Say Thank You – Sincerely thank the teacher for his or her time and hard
work with your child.
