Next PTA Meeting this Thursday, March 4, 7pm

3/3/2021 2:30 pm

Our next virtual PTA Meeting is THIS THURSDAY, March 4th at 7pm.

You must register to attend! 

During our meeting, we're excited to be hosting a presentation by Parent Coach Mary Smith on (Re)Building Boundaries.

(Re)Building Boundaries: During this ongoing pandemic, many parents have coped by easing up to give kids some space. But that often leaves us, as parents, unwittingly feeling angry or resentful. How to get back on track? Boundaries, well, everything in fact, starts with connection. In this talk, Mary will share how the pandemic impacts mental health and your child's developing brain.

Mary Smith is a Master Certified Parent Coach who transforms parenting by altering the parenting perspective to one of understanding how kids’ (and their!) brains work. She coaches parents to replace behavior struggles with cooperation and a sense of calm while helping them deepen parent-child connections so critical to nurture happy, empowered and resilient people.
