Are you waiting anxiously for report cards, only to be blindsided by struggles your child has been facing for months? Do you feel guilty that you don't know what's really happening in your child's classroom, but you're too overwhelmed to figure out how to connect with teachers? In this episode, we share exactly when and how to check in with your child's teacher throughout the school year—without being "that" helicopter parent. You'll learn the four critical life skills that matter more than grades and how to advocate effectively for your child's unique learning needs. After listening, you'll be able to:

• Schedule strategic teacher check-ins at the right times (without overwhelming yourself or the teacher)
• Ask the exact questions that uncover what's really happening with your child's learning
• Understand the 4 foundational life skills that predict success better than grades ever will
• Advocate confidently for your child's accommodations and learning needs
• Support your child's learning at home in fun, practical ways (no boring worksheets required!)

The truth? Parents who do fall check-ins have children who are more successful, less stressed, and better supported throughout the entire school year.
