Free Tutoring for Middle School Students

Cracking Kids' Secret Code

Communicating with your Children

Dr. Chris Thurber previously presented a virtual workshop to the Crossroads Parent Community. Kids' emotions can fluctuate from day to day, hour to hour, and it can be a struggle (especially at this time of year) to know how best to support and guide them. This workshop includes 30 minutes of practical tips and another 30 minutes of Q&A. We hope you find it helpful.

Pick Up During School Time 

If you need to pick up your child during the school day for an appointment, please alert your child's teacher and the Office Manager at least a day in advance (if possible). When picking up in Klee, Bancroft, or the Fanger Center, please go inside and sign your child out at the front desk or with their teacher. Students in the Middle School should always sign out on the laptop at the front entrance after you have alerted their teacher or Middle School Assistant.
