Moog Center's Parents Workshop - Changing Expectations

Posted Jul 26 2009 11:53pm

After going through our Moog Center Parents workshop notes this morning, there were three points made by Betsy Moog Brooks that I found especially interesting. 

1.  Moog now has 20 alumni who have reached age 18 or older and all have graduated from high school.  Over 90% of these alumni are attending college.  The first alumnus is now in Graduate School. 

2.  Parents are never wrong when they "know" something about their child.  For example, if the parent thinks that the child would learn better in a different way, the teacher will change what they are doing and try what the parent thinks will work.

3.  If the child is not succeeding, the teacher is not teaching correctly.
