DESCRIPTION
Staff Pick
"For deans and division heads looking for a title to assign to faculty to discuss at the opening of school in the fall, what better choice."

— Patrick Bassett,
NAIS President

This booklet is written from two perspectives: that of the school psychologist (Thompson) who has worked with many families and schools, and that of the school practitioner (Mazzola), a seasoned independent school teacher. Together, the authors tackle the sensitive topic of parent relations, offering straightforward advice on how to work with the “95 percent” of parents who — with understanding of background and good communication — can be allies, and how to react to the five percent of parents who are unreasonable.
