Sahara Pirie from Sound Discipline will facilitate a workshop on “Parenting with Courage and Connection” on Friday, February 4 from 8:30-10:00am (Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/83021426319). All parents and caregivers are invited to attend.

Parents are often challenged by power struggles and whining, arguments over chores, sibling fights, bedtime problems, clashes over homework and screen time, and other issues. This workshop provides an introduction to skills and tools that get to the core of conflict and bring more peace and joy to your home.

Learn how to:

• Use basic brain science (adult and child) to improve behavior at home
• Build connections to share your values and culture
• Discipline with kindness and firmness.

Parents will leave this workshop with several new simple, respectful parenting tools to use right away!

Walk-a-thon is on Friday, May 5!  We need volunteers starting during lunch recess at 11:15am all the way through 4:30pm.  Please sign up for one or more shifts!  Parents/Guardians are required to attend 2:30pm+ if your student plans to walk after dismissal.  That’s when the real fun begins with DJ, snacks, confetti cannons and more!
