CHRIS180 @ DHHS PARENT EDUCATION PROGRAM RECORDING AVAILABLE
Click HERE to view the recording of last Wednesday's PTO Parent Education Program "Mental Health & CHRIS180 @ DHHS: What to Know."

We would like to apologize for not sending out the Zoom link on time, as we had advertised we would do. We would also like to apologize to Ms. Afrika Hamilton, our CHRIS180 Therapist, for the late start. We're really sorry our timing mix-up caused an inconvenience!
The DHHS Counseling staff remains extremely busy and continues to need help with phones, greeting, and traffic control during the day, as Ms. Woodward, the counseling assistant, is out of the office. We will be providing support throughout the month of September.

There are still spots to fill if you would like to help!

SIGNIFICANT SUMMER 2023 ACADEMIC OPPORTUNITIES TO CONSIDER NOW
The Georgia Governor’s Honors Program (GHP) is a residential summer program for gifted and talented high school students who will be rising juniors and seniors during the program. The program offers instruction that is significantly different from the typical high school classroom. It is designed to provide students with academic, cultural, and social enrichment necessary to become the next generation of global critical thinkers, innovators, and leaders.
GHP is held in mid-summer (mid-June to mid-July) as a residential educational experience on a college or university campus. Students attend classes in the mornings and afternoons in specific areas of study, and they participate in a wide variety of social and instructional opportunities every evening. Meals and rooms are provided by the program. The only required and expected costs to the students are travel expenses to and from the interviews; a few basic supplies for classes and dorm rooms; and spending money as desired during the program.
