Coffee with the Counselors - Nov 12!
October 27, 2025
The Holidays are Coming …and so are your family and friends!
Please join School Counselors Ann Van Buskirk and Katie Polanco on Wednesday, November 12th, beginning at 8:45 a.m. for Coffee with the Counselors.
As the holidays and their accompanying traditions approach, so do different beliefs, expectations, and opinions. Faced with increased input from well-intentioned others (be it a favorite aunt or a stranger in the grocery store) and an onslaught of frivolity, we may find ourselves losing confidence, patience, and the ability to fully enjoy the holiday season. With increased sensory input and more complex family dynamics, children may also need additional support.
Parents/caregivers are invited to meet with Katie and Ann to discuss how you and your family can navigate the holiday season with grace and courtesy while authentically honoring your own parenting values and family practices. Join them and fellow parents/caregivers to discuss strategies and coping mechanisms ahead of the holidays.
Kindly click the link in Springmont Weekly News to RSVP by 3 p.m. on November 11 so that we can plan seats and breakfast treats. Please feel free to include any questions or thoughts you may have.
