PARENTS AS CAREER COACHES – WORKSHOP ON MONDAY, OCT. 22, 6:30 – 9:30 PM, RICHMOND ELEMENTARY GYM9/18/2018 We are excited to present our third Parents As Career Coaches (PACC) Workshop.
PACC is a free evening workshop for parents of middle and secondary students happening on Monday, Oct. 22, 6:30 – 9:30 pm, Richmond Elementary Gym. PACC workshops have been happening all over the lower mainland for the last four years. Marion Haythorne has been leading these workshops, helping parents assist their children make educational decisions and career choices. Through a variety of interactive exercises, parents explore their own values, interests and skills. Then, they can go home and do these same exercises with their children, help them discover their values, interests and skills, and match them to potential education and career pathways. Our first CORE block is coming up tomorrow!, Wednesday (Sept 19) , and it will affect all of our students. Please note the following:
