From the Jasper High School Volleyball Team
Jasper Volleyball always makes it a goal to host an awareness night of some sort during our season. The most popular of these is typically "dig pink" nights for cancer awareness. We all know what Dr. Nalley has been going through in recent months, so the team decided to dedicate this year's game to her! Come join us on Wednesday, October 5th as we take on North Posey in our last home game and we RALLY WITH NALLEY!
We will be selling t-shirts for the event along with other activities taking place the night of the game. If you would like to order a t-shirt, I have attached the order form. All proceeds from the game will benefit Dr. Nalley and her family as she sees fit. SHIRT ORDERS ARE DUE BY TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27TH SO DON'T WAIT!
You can print off the form and return it to me at the high school, or just respond to this email and I'll put your name on the list. You can pay cash, check, or Venmo (check out the form for prices and payment options.) If you are paying Venmo, please include your size and shirt color in the comment. Thank you for the support!

Parent Zoom Cafe by Ireland Home Based Services
September 2022: The Talk
Evidence Based Practice: Strengthening Families Protective Factors
Protective Factors being reinforced: Social Connections, Knowledge of Parenting and Child Development, and Social and Emotional Competence of Children
In September we will discuss how and when to talk to our kids about sex and relationships. We will look at the importance of educating our children on these topics for their own safety as social demands mature and they delve into making decisions that are mature. We will discuss healthy boundaries and risky behavior in dating. See the attached pdf for more details.
