Back to School: Balancing Academic and Social-Emotional Wellness
Social-emotional health is fundamental to life and learning: in fact, research shows that it is a greater predictor of academic success than IQ. As our kids head back to school, we are mindful of what they have been through in the past few years and the youth mental health crisis in our midst.
How can we as parents best support our children’s social-emotional wellbeing at home and in the classroom? In this Voices of Compassion podcast episode, CHC’s Chief Education Officer, Chris Harris, MEd, shares timely tips.
