FAQ's - Educational Success Expert

Question: What can I do as a Parent if my child is struggling in school?

Answer: The best way to help your child struggling in school is to identify areas of growth in all three areas of the WHOLE CHILD (Academics, Behavior, and Mental Health). Once you identify the areas of growth, you need to understand what level of success your child is at right now, decide what success will look like (ex. 3.5GPA, All "Satisfactory" or "Excellent" for their behavior on progress report/s, etc.) and backwards plan the whole process with incremental steps towards accomplishing goals every DAY! Small strides, big goals in mind :)
