  Case: Parent - Teacher Conferences.
Hi!

Growing up, students only had one mandatory parent teacher conference a year and all other times parents were called in were for behavior issues. In my classroom I want strong school-family connections and want to have conferences. Most of my parents only want to hear if their child is misbehaving so scheduling multiple conferences a year is tricky. How do I get parents more involved?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
being flexible is the key. Maybe you could ask them to share a time that works best for them especially a lot of parents have a busy schedules. you can conduct it virully too where they can join you from their homes, work and so on. don't forget that some parents do not speak English so you might include a translated email for those parents.
