Important Presentation
Attention parents, caregivers, and staff, please join the Marshfield Public Schools for an important presentation:
How to Talk to Your Kids and Survive
When: Monday, May 16, 2022 at 6:30 PM
Where: Seth Ventress Building at 76 South River Street
Presenter: Elizabeth Cotter, M.S., L.P.C., Effective School Solutions
Raising a child is probably the most gratifying job any of us will ever have and one of the toughest. In large part, that's because times have changed. We live in an increasingly complex world that challenges us every day with a wide range of disturbing issues that are difficult for children to understand and for adults to explain. Our kids are part of the iGen or GenZ generation. The generation born with smartphones and tablets. Let’s talk about how we can talk to our kids and survive.
