We can all agree that COVID threw our educational system, and our students, for a loop. Parents like yourself may be concerned your son or daughter may have missed important information and experience that was meant to prepare them for the next level of their education.
Are you noticing that they now seem to lack organization and follow-through? Can’t get things turned in on time? Are they always procrastinating? Stressed? Maybe they don’t even seem to care anymore. Or are they working hard, but things just aren’t “clicking” like they used to?
If so, we get it! This has become a very unfortunate and common theme among students who have experienced learning throughout the pandemic.
The changing environment has taken its toll, but let’s take a new approach: never before have they had the opportunity to experience first-hand, what it means to have to be truly flexible; to persevere; to be resilient. These skills, if honed, can be the strength of their generation!
