The Parents Association is pleased to present a series of free online education webinars by Campus Outreach Services featuring nationally-known presenters, authors, experts and psychologists on Monday evenings during the 2009-10 school year.
The Parent-Connect webinars will feature a new topic each month on eight critical risk issues for children presented by a panel of speakers. Besides Wyoming Seminary, school communities from across the country will be joining the live discussions; attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and participate in live polls. All the live webinars will be recorded and can be accessed after the broadcast.
Note: Parents will receive an e-mail with connection instructions approximately one week prior to the broadcast.
