ANNOUNCEMENTS
King Philip, Norfolk, Plainville & Wrentham Schools Parent Wellness Education: Thriving Thursdays
April 1, 2021 6:30 pm
Building Resilience in the Shadow of COVID
Presented by The Nan Project
Despite the challenges of 2020, we’ve seen families and students find ways to grow, adapt, and recover. This ability to bounce back is what experts call “resilience.” Our training offers building blocks for promoting resilience in your family through practical tips for managing stress, creating healthy boundaries, and maintaining self-care.
(No pre-registration required)
April 8, 2021 7:00 pm
Understanding the Mental Health Implications of COVID for Students
and Preparing for a Return to “Normalcy”
Hosted by Bi-County Education Collaborative
Dr. Craig Murphy, PhD, LEP, NCSP
Educational and School Psychologist, Consultant, Speaker, Assoc. Professor at William James College
Although most students have been returning to in-person learning in different models since the start of the 20-21 school year, their academic and social experiences have been far from normal. The goal of this parent presentation is to review many of the common themes in mental health that have emerged during the pandemic, and to discuss strategies for preparing students to return to in-person learning in the near future.
(No Pre-registration required)
