Building Strong Families Conference
Lubbock ISD continues to serve as a sponsor of the 24th annual Building Strong Families Conference. This family focused event provides education and resources for hundreds of parents and professionals in Lubbock and the surrounding area.
The conference will be held at Broadway Church of Christ, Thursday, October 24, 2019. The theme this year is Building Strong Families:Building Strong Connections.
We will start the day off with Dr. Sarah Wakefield discussing how our children are becoming more disconnected from face to face relationships. The breakout sessions throughout the day will offer parents and professionals tools that will help them re-connect with their children and clients with whom they work.
Several of our Lubbock ISD staff will be hosting breakout sessions for the conference, as well as a panel that will include a few of our students.
The flyer for the upcoming conference is attached with information on how to register.
Please include the Building Strong Families Conference information on any upcoming calendars, newsletters, or electronic communications. You are welcome to make copies of the flyer to have available to parents.
Lubbock ISD has sponsored approximately 100 parents each year to attend the conference. Thank you for your help in publicizing this special event that serves many of our parents. The Building Strong Families Conference committee is grateful for the 24 years of sponsorship from Lubbock ISD!
