Synopsis

Every parent-teacher conference should answer three questions. Most don't.

Where is my child right now? What is the expected baseline? What can we do — at home and at school — from here?

The Seat Across the Table gives parents the knowledge to walk into any conference prepared — whether it's about a report card they don't understand, a behavior concern, a homework battle, or a situation that feels like something is wrong but no one is saying it clearly.

Drawing on more than twenty years in education as a classroom teacher, high school dean of students, and assessment administrator, Sean Nolan, Ph.D. translates what schools know but rarely explain into tools every parent can use.

For first-time parents and veteran parents alike. For parents who didn't do well in school themselves. For parents who want more for their child than the system has been giving them.

Covers report cards and grading systems, state assessment scores, GPAs, grading policies, homework expectations, behavior conferences, 504s and IEPs, red flags and escalation, and following up effectively. California-focused with national applicability throughout.

Includes a complete Parent Toolkit appendix with worksheets, question banks, checklists, email templates, and plain-language guides to California assessments.
