About the Wellness Series

As we navigate a world after a pandemic filled with ever-changing technology and influences, I welcome the opportunity to partner with you on this adventure as we parent and teach the next generation. This Wellness Series was born to create a sense of belonging and purpose. By exploring some of the challenges families face in today’s world, I hope to engage together as we explore the best ways to communicate and support one another as we bolster our social, emotional, and physical health and safety. We will offer a variety of options and formats so that you can join us as you are able. Bring a friend too! -- Mary Keever, Head of School
