Join Snowline as we launch our NEW parent education workshop series, designed especially for you and the needs of your students. We will be sending monthly reminders of our workshops in case you forget.

Have a question about our parent nights? Check out these Frequently Asked Questions:

Do I have to register in advance? No. There is no need to register in advance for these workshops. You can just arrive at the location. We suggest arriving a few minutes early to find a seat and get settled.
Is there childcare? At this time, there is not childcare. If this is a barrier to you, let us know via email below so we can plan childcare for future events.
Where are the workshops located? The locations change monthly, so be sure to check the event details. Our first workshop, Suicide Awareness & Student Mental Health, will take place at Serrano High School, located at 9292 Sheepcreek Rd. in Phelan. Signs will be posted to point you to the correct building onsite.
Is there any cost to the workshops? No, the workshops are completely free and open to all Snowline families.
Are the workshops only for parents? The workshops are designed for parents and guardians of school-age students, but are open to any community members.

Parenting Tips & Toolbox

Social-emotional learning describes the mindsets, skills, attitudes, and feelings that help students succeed in school, career, and life. It focuses on how motivation, social connectedness, and self control enable every student to learn and thrive.

We owe it to students to provide them with not just academic knowledge, but with the skills they need to apply that knowledge in all settings, throughout their lives, with confidence and security.

Building Social-Emotional Learning Competencies

The CASEL framework addresses five areas that are fundamental to SEL competence. These skills are important for collaboration and perspective-taking, and serve students well in school and in life. By building skills in these areas, students manage their emotions, handle challenges, and reach their goals.

5 Social-Emotional Learning Competencies:

Self-awareness: the ability to recognize one’s strengths and limitations with a sense of confidence and purpose
Self-management: the ability to manage one’s feelings and behavior, including handling stress
Social awareness: the ability to understand the perspectives of others, including those from diverse backgrounds
Relationship skills: the ability to communicate clearly, listen actively, and work collaboratively to problem solve
Responsible decision-making: the ability to evaluate the benefits and consequences of various actions
