Spring Series with Katey McPherson
Topic: Helping Families Thrive: How to Reach, Teach & Support our Children
Based on Dr. Michele Borba's bestselling book, "Thrivers", this class will explore what sets resilient, successful kids apart and how parents can cultivate those traits at home.
In an age of rising stress and uncertainty, it's not just about academics; it's about character and recognizing how your son or daughter learns, plays, and interacts with peers and families best.
Join us to learn the seven essential character strengths-like self-confidence, empathy, and perseverance-that help children flourish socially, emotionally, and academically. You'll leave with practical tools, real-life examples, and a renewed sense of what it means to raise a thriving child in today's world.
