The annual transition back to school at the end of the summer is one of the most significant transitions for our kids. We have all gone through so much this past year! Our children and teens have navigated many ups and downs, changes and challenges. Understandably, the transition back to school this September will be a big one and will likely come with a lot of feelings for our kids, ranging from excitement to frustration or worry... and everything in between! In this 4-Part OnPoint Parenting Special Series, we explore ways to help our kids navigate their return to school. Together, Chantelle Quesnelle and Beth McCague discuss helpful tips and strategies to support your children or teens who are reluctant to go back to school, feeling mixed emotions about their return, or simply avoiding the topic altogether! We also have an episode just for you parents, as you are navigating your own concerns or worries about your child’s or teen’s transition. Each 20-minute episode will include resources available on onpointparenting.com. If you find yourself thinking about specific questions, we have got you covered! You can submit your questions on our website, onpointparenting.com. We are excited to answer your questions with you and SMCDSB parents in our Live Q&A on August 31st at 7 pm! Here we will join a panel of our SMCDSB Psychology Department staff to explore and answer your questions about ways to mentally and emotionally support your children and teens as they transition back to school this fall.
