Family and Community Engagement

Parent Leadership Academy - Virtual

Families, we know that moving from a traditional school setting to distance learning has not been easy, especially for parents. And we recognize the importance of parental support for our student’s academic and social/emotional wellbeing.  We want to support our parents in this new world of distance learning.  

 

As a result, we have a new program to offer parents called Virtual Parent Leadership Academy (VPLA).

 

This is a series of 4 online workshops where you will meet virtually with other parents to learn and discuss the following topics.  

 

  1. Family Engagement in a Virtual World
  2. Supporting Students through Distance Learning
  3. Technology and Distance Learning Platforms
  4. Mental Health in our Current Reality

 

This is a program in collaboration with other schools in our district.  The classes are virtual and 1 ½ hour long online.  This class will be presented in English.  There will be computer support for parents.  

 

You can choose to attend Tuesdays & Thursdays from   10:00–11:30am.    OR     5:30pm–7:00pm starting on Thursday, September 24, 2020.

 

Space is limited to 30 parents.  First come, first served basis.

 

Mindfulness Parent Training (Virtual) classes available!

Parents this will be a virtual training that can be done from the comfort of your own home. Offered Mondays, October 5th, 12th, 19th and 26th from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m.

Mindfulness can be a tool to help keep calm through these challenging times. Here's the definition of it: a mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one's feelings, thoughts.

 

Many of our parents have really enjoyed attending!
