In recognition of October being the national Family Involvement Month, Wicomico County Public Schools is offering Making Stronger Connections, a family involvement conference on Saturday October 13, 8 a.m.-noon.
The conference, Making STRONGER Connections: Family, Schools & Community, will be held at Parkside High School, 1015 Beaglin Park Drive, Salisbury, MD. This is a FREE conference with workshops on topics such as bullying, positive behavior strategies, and common core overview (choose from 24 workshops).
The conference begins with breakfast, followed by a presentation by Dr. Christian Moore. Dr. Moore is creator of the WhyTry program, which helps students and parents in their efforts for their child’s academic and behavior success (www.whytry.org).
Free child care is provided for ages 2 – 5, and youth activities are available for ages 6 – 12 (registration is required). Parents are eligible to win door prizes donated by community businesses that support our students’ success!
