COVID-19 and Your Student
The impact of COVID-19 has affected everyone. For children and teens, the pandemic caused a major disruption in their education and social-emotional development. As a result, students could feel behind academically and/or socially, leading to anxiety, depression, apathy, and/or low self-esteem. Aware and Mindful Youth seeks to help students regain confidence in their school work and relationships, by helping to assess where they need the most support, and teaching them individualized skills to get back on track. A holistic approach is used to include parents, teachers, and other professionals to ensure positive changes remain long term.
