Supporting your Children during the COVID-19 Pandemic
We know this has been an extremely stressful time for many of us with the ongoing pandemic and challenges of online learning. It has also been a difficult year for our community given the tragedy at Saugus High School last November, especially as we approach the one year mark. With this in mind, we are fortunate to be able to welcome Dr. David Schonfeld to speak to our Arroyo Seco community at our upcoming Parent Advisory Council meeting on Monday, November 2nd, beginning at 4:00 pm. The presentation will last about an hour with Q & A to follow. The title of Dr. Schonfeld’s presentation is “Talking to and supporting your children during the COVID-19 pandemic.” Dr. Schonfeld will provide time at the end of his presentation for questions related to the pandemic or preparing for the one year mark. We look forward to seeing many of you there!
