Students are all in their classes for the semester, and some adjustments have been made to assure that class sizes are optimal for our students. It’s been a great start to the year, and clubs, organizations, sports, drama, dance and other activities are already in full swing. That said, be sure that your student has a manageable schedule and is able to organize a balance between school work and extracurricular activities. The biggest source of stress for our students in being double-booked; having to miss an obligation and then explain why is hard on a young person! Check out this article from a Canadian publication about maintaining balance among all the demands on young people these days. And think about: what does my student do with their “down time”?
