Health and Wellness Committee Martha Kreeger/Jamie Richards Peer Resource: A very busy January.... We've had lots of new referrals. We now have more referrals than students, so some are doubling up. We've been organizing all kinds of stuff, but our main goal is to get Thursday Peer Talks going again. This will be open to all students. I continue to teach the class lessons which is A. For them and B. For them to teach their buddies (and others). Today we learned about not being around too much so that you are taken advantage of, taken for granted or wear out your welcome. Some of our socially inadequate kids tend to be clingy to the point that people avoid them... The class will be going to a conference at UC Berkeley next week. It's mostly about help their peers deal with destructive behavior (drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, etc.) Oh, and you know we had some kids help with the Race to Nowhere evening at Gomes. Tomorrow night I can't make the Mission Possible meeting. I have to supervise the basketball game at Newark Memorial. But I'll have a student(s) there tomorrow. Mission: SOS February 15:
Mission: SOS and Hopkins PFA Present: An Evening with Dr. Denise Pope, Stanford School of Education
Walking the Talk: Aligning Actions and Values for Youth Well-Being Tuesday, February 15, 2011 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm, MSJHS in C-120
We all want our children to be healthy, happy, and fulfilled. Students themselves strive to be "successful". Sometimes, however, parent and school expectations can interfere with healthy child development. In this highly interactive presentation for students and parents, Dr. Denise Pope addresses the challenges students face as they strive to succeed in a fast-‐paced, high-‐pressure culture. We’ll examine the meaning of "success" for both parents and students and hear from students and parents within our community. For parents, Dr. Pope offers concrete strategies they can use to decrease the unhealthy pressure on students, improve youth well-‐being and foster engagement with learning. And for students, Dr. Pope offers strategies students can use to turn adults into allies when determining their own path to success.
February 15 Denise Pope @ 7 pm -‐ 8:30 pm
