Parent Forum

We had a great turnout this morning at our Lower School Parent Forum!  We delved into the topics of executive functions and worry, and talked about student success as something that is achieved when the student learns, over time, to manage worries and fears, and to gain an understanding of his or her executive function processes and learning needs.  Dr. Trusty, Mrs. Martin, and I shared strategies and skills for both home and school.  Parents had the opportunity to know more about what classroom teachers are doing on a daily basis, and what they can consider implementing at home to help their child with attention, organization, and worries as they grow through elementary school.  Our Power Point is posted on the Calvert School homepage.   Please take some time to look it over, and let Elizabeth Martin or me know if you have any questions.
