September is Attendance Awareness Month, and Huntley 158’s motto is “Your Presence is Your Power.” Every day in school provides students with opportunities to learn, build relationships and access important support.
As part of its virtual Family Learning Series, Huntley 158 will welcome Jacqueline Rhew, a licensed clinical professional counselor specializing in school refusal and anxiety in children. This free presentation, open to all Huntley 158 families, will provide practical strategies for supporting children experiencing school anxiety, avoidance or refusal.
Parents and caregivers will learn how to recognize early warning signs, understand the connection between anxiety and avoidance, and help children develop healthy coping skills, build confidence and gradually re-engage in school.
