We want to share with you this new initiative and encourage you to attend and participate. Parent classes are an initiative that we started in order to support you as parents or caregivers by providing useful resources as you serve as the main guide for our students through life.
It is extremely important that we work as a team to support our students, clearly identifying our roles as educators and yours as parents or guardians. For every child, school starts at home and from the moment the child begins to be part of the family nucleus. As parents we often have doubts, feel overwhelmed and even confused when tackling this responsibility. Hence, creating a meaningful space where we can share, discuss and learn is of great importance. The topics of the parent classes were chosen based on concerns voiced by parents.
Even though classes started a few weeks ago, topics vary, so you are welcome to join us any time. Parents who attend all sessions get a certificate of attendance!
Please find below the topics to be discussed in the next sessions:
