A one-day conference to equip families with tools for teen success
Parenting U is a one-day conference designed to provide parents with tools, insights, and practical strategies to support their tweens’ and teens’ growth (academically, socially, emotionally) as they move from adolescence to adulthood.

The day will include seven breakout sessions on topics such as:
Best practices for supporting teens academically
Coping skills to deal with anxiety
Readying students for key transitions in their lives
Social media self-management skills
Executive functioning
Motivation
Effective and empathic parent/teen communication

Parents will come away equipped with the knowledge, tools and resources to better support their teens.
