Challenge Success & The Well-Balanced Student

On March 16, SPUSD hosted Challenge Success for a parent education event titled, "The Well-Balanced Student." Margaret Dunlap, Senior School Program Director, shared current research along with practical strategies for families to support their children’s health, resilience, and engagement in learning. Here is a link to the recording.
