PARENT NETWORK CONNECTIONS
One of B-PEN’s primary missions is to provide opportunities for parents to connect with one another regarding some of the common social/emotional issues all our adolescents face as they develop. To complement regular PTO meetings, grade-geared Parent Network get-togethers at each school provide opportunities for helping parents get to know, support and strategize with one another around
common developmental concerns. For help starting a Parent Network or more information on B-PEN’s offerings and resources, contact B-PEN coordinators June Harris, jharris@brooklinema.gov or Karen Campbell, kcampbell@brooklinema.gov. * * * MEETING REIMBURSEMENT GRANTS To support and encourage parents of 6th–9th grade Brookline Public School students in the formation of Parent Networks, B-PEN offers Meeting Reimbursement Grants of up to $50-$100 (depending on participation numbers) for food and supplies. There are 10 grants available for the balance of the 2011-12 academic school year. For more information, click here… |
