Don’t miss your chance to register for Survive & Thrive in Jr. High!

Middle school and/or junior high can feel overwhelming, especially for students with Learning Disabilities (like Dyslexia) and/or ADHD. New teachers, heavier workloads, and bigger social circles can be a lot to navigate, but the right support makes all the difference.

Led by a Foothills Academy provisional psychologist, Survive & Thrive in Jr. High explores topics such as:
- Study skills, time management & organization
- Social skills, friendships & peer relationships
- Being safe: Dealing with bullying/cyberbullying and internet safety
- Dealing with adolescence (self-esteem, body changes & hygiene)

Program runs August 17 - August 21 with both morning and afternoon sessions available ( 9 AM-12 PM or 1 PM-4 PM)

Bursaries are available on a sliding scale based on family income and individual needs, helping make our psychology programs accessible and inclusive.
