Description
The parent interview isn’t just another checklist item — it’s a pivotal moment to establish trust, gather meaningful insights, and lay the groundwork for a productive relationship between family and school. In this interactive and engaging session, admission professionals from Pine Crest School will help you turn these conversations into authentic connections that serve both your process and your people. Through a cowboy-themed series of real-time cell phone polls (boots optional) and live mock interviews (audience volunteers wanted!), we will explore strategies for navigating the parent interview with confidence and intention. You will leave with new ideas and actionable takeaways. Come ready to share, laugh, and rethink how you make the most of every parent conversation.
