Conversations matter and connections matter. We gathered the following three tips to empower you to connect with the school counselor or support staff at your child’s school to foster a home-school connection.
Talking to your kids about family values, expectations, and being mindful and balanced before, during, and even after holiday events are both important and valuable.

Teachers, as you’re settling into classroom routines and building relationships with your students and families, keep in mind that the school year is a marathon, not a sprint. Sustaining that first day of school energy for the rest of the year means working smarter, not harder and we’re here to help!
It’s time to get the kids back to school! These are exciting times—a new school year is a FRESH START for kids—a blank slate to define who they are and to set goals for this new chapter.
It’s time to welcome students back to school! These are exciting times! A new school year is a FRESH START for everyone, but especially kids—a blank slate to define who they are and to set goals for this new chapter. Some kids may be making the transition from elementary to middle, which can be a big step. All kids will be making new friends and connecting with peers they haven’t seen all summer, allowing for new experiences, opportunities, and choices.

April is Alcohol Responsibility Month, which is the perfect time to talk with kids about saying “NO” to underage drinking. As we settle into spring, these conversations have never been more important—and they are working! Underage drinking rates are at historically low levels. And together, we hope to keep them moving in the right direction.
