ISACS Parent Education Webinar Viewing& Discussion On Campus 10/22
On Monday, October 24th, The Summit will be hosting a group viewing of the webinar Thrivers: What Really Helps Kids Find Happiness Today and Success Tomorrow beginning at 2:00 pm in the Music Room on campus.
This webinar, presented by the Independent School Association of the Central States (ISACS), features Michele Borba, Educational Psychologist and Author.
All Summit families are invited to attend the viewing from 2:00-3:00 pm and stay for discussion until carline at 3:30 pm. Please let us know if you can attend! If you can’t make it but are interested in accessing the recording, you may indicate that in the RSVP form as well.
See below for a summary of Dr. Borba's presentation:
Data shows that today’s youth are the loneliest, most stressed, and risk-averse on record. Though well-educated, they are failing to launch in real life. So how can we teach them to be mentally strong and more successful?
Borba empowers both educators and parents to help kids thrive in today’s fast-paced, digital-driven, often uncertain world. Through her research, she found that the difference between those who struggle and those who succeed comes down to the personal traits that set Thrivers apart and set them up for happiness, as well as greater potential later in life. She offers practical, actionable ways to develop these Thrivers traits for kids and shows you how to teach your children to cope today, so they can flourish tomorrow in school and life.
These are lessons that will last a lifetime.
