Bloggers of Shakopee: Conferences

It does seem that often the students that need the most attention are the ones that do not show up.

I felt I had fairly good turn out at the conferences. I sat next to a core subject teacher and had almost as many conferences as they had. Like your experience, almost every conference was with a parent of a student that was doing well.

I try not to lose to much sleep over it. I can see the pattern that leads to student success and am more concerned that I try to do the things that help students succeed ( attend conferences, check up on homework, use school view, etc.) wtih my own kids. I know it works and it is the little piece of the world I have some control over.

I feel confident that as a teacher I am working to reach all my students but as callous as it may sound - you can lead a horse to water, but youcan't make it drink.
