Salisbury
School is excited to offer our parents access to the Parent-Connect Webinar
Series hosted by Campus Outreach Services.
Our parents
will join other parents internationally to participate in interactive seminars
that explore critical youth health and wellness issues. Respected authors,
experts and psychologists provide the latest research and practical advice for
helping you connect with teens. Live webinars air on the first Monday of
each month from 8:00 -9:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Each of the eight webinar
addresses covers a unique topic and has a special focus. The eight, on-line
seminars offer a discourse with trusted authors, experts and psychologists who
provide the latest research and practical tips to help you engage your teens
and provide parents with information to help their teens make healthy
decisions.
Parents will
gain access to an e-classroom – which includes the live webinars, resources and
