March 06, 2025, from 6-7:30pm
JOIN US ON Zoom | HS IN THE ITRACK | HS IN THE FRENCH TRACK
In this presentation for high school parents, we’ll explore what well-being means for our high school students and how it looks in their daily lives. We'll discuss the importance of fostering habits that intentionally support physical, mental, emotional, and social health, along with practical ways to guide them on this journey. We’ll also address the unique parenting challenges around mental health messaging, incorporating insights from the Surgeon General’s call to action on teen mental health and parent well-being. You’ll learn how to effectively communicate messages about healthy habits, using evidence-based frameworks like Dan Siegel’s "7 Parts of the Healthy Mind Plate" and Challenge Success’s “PDF.” Lastly, we’ll cover how to recognize signs and symptoms that may need attention, initiate conversations, and seek help when necessary.
To conclude, we will share an overview of our health education curriculum in High School at the Lycée.
