Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)

The best strategy is for teachers to build parent-teacher relationships when they have to contact parents to address academic concerns or students' behavior difficulties.


Ans: False
General Feedback:
The best strategy is for teachers to build parent-teacher relationships before they have a need to contact parents to address academic concerns or students' infringement of behavior expectations. When a teacher contacts parents for the first time because of a perceived problem, the parents may view the school as an unwelcoming and negative setting. Future phone calls may go unanswered, parents may not attend parent-teacher conferences, and the child's academic and behavior difficulties may be blamed on the teacher.
