Baldwin has partnered with the Association of Delaware Valley Independent Schools (ADVIS), Pennsylvania Association of Independent Schools (PAIS) and the Independent Schools Association of the Central States (ISACS) to offer a wonderful opportunity to our parent community through The Parent Series. 

 

The next webinar in the Series, titled "How to Raise Socially Skilled Tweens & Teens Who Can Navigate Friendship Challenges" takes place TONIGHT. Tweens and teens need to feel a sense of belonging in order to take social and academic risks, manage social setbacks, cope with intense emotions and make smart choices online and offline. Phyllis Fagell will share practical ways to boost your child’s social skills, scaffold risk-taking at an age when they fear embarrassment and help them find their place in the pack. While the strategies apply to all kids, she will concentrate most on kids in grades 3–10.

Presenter: Phyllis L. Fagell is a licensed mental health therapist at Chrysalis Group, Inc. and certified school counselor at Landon School. She is the author of Middle School Matters, The 10 Key Skills Kids Need to Thrive in Middle School and Beyond – and How Parents Can Help, and Middle School Superpowers, Raising Resilient Tweens in Turbulent Times. Fagell also is a contributor to The Washington Post CNN, U.S. News & World Report, and her ideas have been shared in The New York Times, The Atlantic, The New Yorker, The Chicago Tribune, and NPR.
