BARRIERS TO COMMUNICATIONLANGUAGE, SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS, AGE, AND OTHER FACTORS

EVERY COMMUNICATION SHOULD START WITH REAL DATA

When reaching out, you need to see each student the way the parent does - as an individual. You need the individual student data from their course grades, state assessments, benchmark assessments,

attendance, discipline - all of it - right in front of you to have a meaningful, fully-informed conversation.

If you’re just chatting about the weather, it’s not helping students succeed.

”It’s easy to use (my mobile app). I don’t need to look for

parent numbers or save them on my phone. I also love

the fact that conversations are recorded. It shows proof

of conversation and what the conversation was about.”

“It is an excellent way to connect

with students’ families, maintain

records of contact for future use,

and aids documentation.”
