March 14, 2024-- Last night, families from around the district came together to learn and grow by choosing an in-person or virtual Parent Academy: Reset & Renew with Laine Whittaker, MSL, from Effective School Solutions.
Whittaker taught parents about a transition reset, mindfulness, and emotion regulation.
"Those who cultivate mindfulness in their daily lives are less vulnerable to the 'what if' and other thoughts that are associated with anxiety," she said. "They are more likely to accept reality as it is, and to look for what is needed in the moment to solve a problem or to make things better."
Toms River Regional Schools values its partnerships with our families, and looks forward to further Parent Academy nights to continue to assist in the process of each child meeting their individualized success.
