| Parent Support Group (PSG) |
|
The Parent Support Group (PSG) of The Parenting Program provides an opportunity for students to actively utilize their leadership skills, and/or contribute special talents and resources. The PSG is comprised of teachers, administrators and active students. Involvement in PSG opens the door for students wishing to understand what it takes to participate within the Conejo Valley Unified School District parent/teacher organizations such as PTA, PFA or School Site Council. With common goals in mind, students and teachers work together to provide enriching, exciting and educational events for families enrolled in The Parenting Program.

PSG meetings are held once a month, and many opportunities for participation are available, from being a class PSG representative, to an event committee chairperson! By being part of the PSG, students become familiar with the staff and teachers, as well as parents from different classrooms. Many of the student friendships that are formed in the PSG last well beyond the preschool years. |
