Navigating the School System: Helping Your Kids Thrive and You Survive

In today’s society, you want to help your child make the most of their early learning years. But, it can be difficult for parents to navigate schools and advocate for their children in both public and private settings. Author of The Parent Backpack, ML Nichols, will be joining us to provide tips and strategies for parents to get involved with their children’s education in productive ways.
At this workshop, you’ll enjoy a nutritious dinner from Healthy Habits Kitchen and learn firsthand from ML Nichols how to support your child on their educational journey in the school system. You’ll learn how to speak with teachers and administrators so that your voice is heard and how to minimize homework meltdowns with your children.

And, you’ll walk away with a copy of ML’s book, The Parent Backpack, packed with real stories and tested strategies to help guide you through our complex educational system.
