Are you curious about what’s really on your teen’s mind these days? How are they navigating friendships, stress, and the pressures of school? What themes come up in their conversations at school?
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to engage directly with key voices from our SAAS community! Join us in person for an insightful conversation with Giselle Furlonge, Associate Head of School; Leigh Hopkins, Director of Counseling; and Andrés Arteaga, Director of Equity and Inclusion. Moderated by SAAS parent and experienced facilitator, Deli Moussavi, this event will bring parents into the circle of support our teens rely on.
PLEASE RSVP FOR THE OCTOBER 15 Event HERE
What we’ll dive into:
What’s on their minds?
- Explore the real-life issues students share with trusted adults at school—friendship dynamics, conflict resolution, anxiety, academic pressures, and more.
Building a toolkit for support.
- Learn actionable ways you can help your teen prioritize their well-being while handling challenges with resilience.
This isn’t just another talk—it’s about community building and a chance to connect, share, and leave with practical insights and a deeper understanding of how we can all foster our teens’ emotional and mental health.
We can’t wait to see you there for an interactive, insightful, and supportive evening that will equip you with ways to better support your teen, no matter what they’re facing.
Come for dessert AND great conversation!
