Helping Young Teens Succeed in Middle School

Parents and middle schoolers face a challenging task together—navigating the new pressures kids face as they tackle the academics and social transitions of middle school. Puberty, demanding academics and schedules, new friendships, mercurial emotions, exposure to drug and alcohol abuse, and the group dynamics of middle school years all combine to make a complex world for parents and their children. Program helps parents understand how they can provide the necessary support and promote skills and strategies that ensure their child’s success. Parents learn how to successfully negotiate issues of concern, avoid unnecessary conflicts, promote independence and self-management skills, and provide a nurturing environment for growth and development.
