Family Plan Workshop
Jonathan Bowman will lead a parent workshop about creating a Family Plan. Join us to learn how to clarify and simplify your family plan. Parents and guardians will learn how to define what is important to them as a family, what their vision for the future looks like and how they can set goals and priorities to help them achieve their vision. Finally, they will learn some simple tools that will keep the family on the same page, improve communication and solve issues on a week to week basis. Open to and recommended for families of all grade levels.
