Special Author Visit @ MBS

On Tuesday, November 18th, PPS and Union Memorial are hosting author and parenting coach Vicki Hoefle at Mallets Bay School from 6:00-8:00 pm.  Vicki Hoefle wrote the book Duct Tape Parenting, which gives parents a new perspective on what it means to be effective, engaged parents and to enable kids to develop confidence through solving their own problems.  This presentation is free and open to the public.  Free childcare is available and so is free pizza for dinner, but you need to register for both by calling Greg Kriger at 264-5927.

Lunch with Ms. Maddie

Our school social worker, Maddie Sivo, often meets with students during their lunchtime.  She sometimes allows students to invite friends to join them so they can all work on social skills and building positive friendships.  If you are not comfortable with your child being invited for these small groups, please let me know or contact Maddie directly – sivom@csdvt.org or 264-5918.
