Join us for this 60th Anniversary Speaker Series event with guest presenter Sarah Ward as she discusses practical strategies to help develop a solid understanding of what executive function skills are and how they impact a student's academic and personal performance. 

Participants will learn how to promote the development of these skills by incorporating them into daily activities, as well as strategies to help children initiate tasks, follow routines, transition between tasks, think in an organized way, and take ownership of their homework and tasks. 

This virtual event is open to the public.

Contact Laurie Ransom, Director of Curriculum and Instruction, with questions.
