Coffee with the Principal - Meet the Mental Health Team
From Naomi Krakow:
This Friday, January 23rd at 9:30, families are invited to join me for an informal coffee to meet the members of Alcott's mental health team. We will share an overview of the mental health supports we provide for students, from Tier 1 whole class instruction to small group targeted interventions to individual counseling. Over the last year, we have welcomed several new counselors to our school community so you may be interested in attending this coffee even if you are a veteran Alcott family!
This event will be hybrid. Please come in person or join on zoom using this link: https://concordps.zoom.us/j/95580522430?pwd=2ZNMxb8dauip0JztQ0gBOjWxMBqYBD.1&jst=2

Participation details can be found HERE.
