Translate a School Report Into Plain Parenting Language

School reports are written in a hedged dialect where "would benefit from more focus" carries a meaning teachers cannot say outright. This reads the overall signal and translates the polite phrasing into the real message, without setting off alarm bells you do not need. For parents who want the truth, calmly.

**Translate the report in three steps:**
1. Identify the overall signal: is this report primarily positive, primarily concerned, or mixed -- and state this plainly.
2. For each comment, restate what the teacher is actually saying: what they are pleased about, concerned about, or diplomatically raising without saying directly.
3. Identify any comment that requires follow-up -- a conversation with the teacher, additional support at home, or a question to ask.
