Based on the author’s over twenty-five years in public education, Advanced and Struggling Students is a collection of insider information to help parents navigate the school system. Focusing specifically on the needs of struggling and high-achieving students, this book is a roadmap to help parents get the best for their child.
For too many families, the language and culture of public education are confusing and intimidating, creating barriers that prevent meaningful and supportive collaboration. This can be especially true for both the parents of students who struggle and the parents of students who are high achievers. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Schools should be a place where parents feel welcomed and a place where rules and practices are translated into language that parents can understand and relate to. Ultimately, schools should be a place where parents are provided the information they need to support and advocate for their children.

If you are the parent of a struggling or high-achieving child, Advanced and Struggling Students: An Insider’s Guide for Parents and Teachers to Support Exceptional Youngsters will teach you how to understand and be understood. Full of tips, strategies, resources, and real-life stories, this book will help you learn how to be a productive partner with your child’s school and how to be an effective advocate for your child’s needs.

Parry Graham has worked in public education for over twenty-five years as a teacher, principal, central office administrator, graduate school professor, and independent consultant. His previous books include How Public Schools Really Work: An Insider’s Guide for Parents and Practitioners, the award-winning Building a Professional Learning Community at Work: A Guide to the First Year, and Making Teamwork Meaningful: Leading Progress-Driven Collaboration in a PLC at Work.
