Today was my first parent/teacher phone conference with my daughter’s homeroom teacher. As she is attending a virtual school, we have never met the teachers. I have known for at least a week about the phone conference today, so I was ready for it. Or so I thought. The questions were fine, mostly she was just getting to know my daughter and her preferences and learning style. However, my phone started beeping at me during the conversation, letting me know it was about to die. I told the teacher that it was about to die and was about to plug it in to the charger when it did die! Right in the middle of the interview! I was very embarrassed! What a bad first impression. When we did reconnect, after a couple of tries, I did apologize and she was gracious about it. Still, I was very embarrassed!
