Parents — as your children head back to school, make sure you are prepared to help them have a successful year. Not only do you want them to earn good grades, you’ll want them to stay on top of their school work to avoid stress, effectively navigate social situations, and respond to bullying, if it happens. Join our own 2019 DC Mother of the Year, Carol Muleta and the DC Metro Association of American Mothers Inc. on Saturday, September 14 for a free Back to School Parent Forum that will address all of these topics. This event will be held at Shepherd Park Public Library from 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM. You will hear from three great speakers who will give you tips to make sure your child starts the year off right! Again, this event is free. We just need you to register at Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/back-to-school-parent-forum-tickets-69261867109

One of the first things our children learn about interacting with others, even siblings and family members, is how to be a ‘friend'; how to treat others kindly. In fact, young children take great pride and find security in their friendships. As they mature beyond that idyllic stage and their circle of engagement expands, friendships can become challenging. This parent talk is designed to provide tools to parents and caregivers to help the children in their lives build and maintain healthy friendships. This talk is being hosted by Cameron Elementary School in Alexandria, VA for their parent community. I am looking forward to presenting this talk on behalf of the Parent Encouragement Program (PEP).
