School Success Groups!
With school starting, it is time to consider how to help each child be a great success! There is so much more than just ABCs, geography, and algebra to consider. Children of all ages have to negotiate the joys and stickiness of relationships, the expectations and rules of the school and teachers, the highs and lows of a developing self-esteem, and the unique way that their personality and temperament fit in with their family, school, and friends. For some children, they carry the additional burden of family divorce or death, weight and health issues, medication management, learning disabilities or mental health issues.
Small groups are a proven method for finding desired success through shared understanding, accountability, discussion, and group activities. Over six weeks, children will work with others at their developmental level as they practice together these important life skills.

Due to the highly relational nature of group work, each family will sign a consent form indicating their commitment to attending all six sessions. Unless a child is absent due to their own illness, missed sessions will be charged regular group session fee.
Once the needed number of participants in a given age group have joined, the parents will be contacted in order for the group to choose a meeting time. Groups will generally meet Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday afternoon or evening.
