Since students
possess intimate knowledge about their academic progress, they should
be invited to participate in, or even lead, parent-teacher conferences.
Interested middle schools should consider piloting their models,
focus on the conference model process, have students identify personal
goals, clearly define participants' roles, and evaluate models'
effectiveness. (MLH)
