• Don’t Miss This Opportunity

    Do you need some help guiding your teen successfully through the transition to adulthood?

    WHO:      Parents of 7th-12th Grade Students

    WHAT:  Staying Connected with Your Teen Parenting Class

    WHY?     This is a proven-effective, research-based, model program that shows parents how to improve their family management practices and strengthen the bond with their teen(s), resulting in substance abuse prevention, violence prevention, and positive character development. Quotes from Clayton parents:
    • "I found the subject matter remarkably thought-provoking and would highly recommend the class to any parent wanting to better know their child and the challenges they may face."
    • "I learned things and my parenting skills were affirmed in many ways as well."
    • "Really useful information."
    • "I'm more aware of the conversations we need to have."
    • "The anger management discussion was really helpful."
    HOW? Mail your registration in today. The cost is $25 for the class and a book you keep.  Please also send a separate check for $40 as a deposit for your DVD. Your deposit will be returned when you return your DVD. Please make both checks out to The Community Alliance. Watch the DVD and read the chapters at times that are convenient to you. Then come to two facilitated classes to discuss the material with other parents.

    WHEN:     We will only meet twice from 6:15 – 8:00 p.m. in the Administrative Center Rooms A and B, #2 Mark Twain Circle next to Clayton High School.
