PARENT Education classes

NEW! Families in a Tech-Filled World
What do families really need so they can thrive in this digital age? Join us
for a discussion on how to balance the pros and cons of today’s electronic
technology. Filled with useful and empowering tips for parents on how to
best navigate family life in the digital age. Geared for parents or caregivers
of children ages three through grade two. Although this is a free class with
childcare, pre-registration is required for both the adult class and childcare.

Why parent education
classes?
Kids don’t come with
instructions.
Parent education classes are
designed to meet the needs of
today’s families by providing a
community and shared learning
experiences for moms, dads,
grandparents, and those who
work with children.
Classes offer families with children
ages birth through grade two the
knowledge and support needed
to work through the challenges of
many early childhood milestones
and help you raise confident,
cooperative and responsible
children.
Registration information can be
found on pages 38-39.

So relevant, practical, and
informative! It was great to
learn about behaviors and what
to do while they aren’t actually
happening. Gained ideas to
implement at home.
