How will you answer this question?

"Provide a time when you had to tell a parent that their child was not progressing. Was there a time when the parent didn't take it well? How did you handle the situation?"

Feel free to share anything else to keep in mind for a Title I teaching position interview!

I don't know how this question would be different for any other school (i.e., not just a Title I school), but typically, any question where parents are upset my standard answer is that I always listen to what there concerns are and try to approach it from a perspective that makes sense. So I'd ask how they are feeling about their child's progress first, then listen to what they have to say. I'd also always start with a positive to share and then share concerns.

You've probably had the interview- how did it go? Good luck!
