A week from tonight, Fay School is holding another free event for parents of school aged children. The “Ideas&Insights” series presentation features a “conversation” with a clinical psychologist about helping kids build resilience and manage big emotions.
Fay’s event will be held May 10th from 7:00 – 8:30 pm. As usual, the Fay event requires pre-registration.
