MRUSD Dr. Joelle van Lent Family Presentation - March 16, 2021 6:00 p.m.
There is hope on the horizon and yet we remain very much in the midst of coping with the stress of the pandemic. Join us for a conversation with Dr. Joelle van Lent focused on the well-being of our children and ourselves as we continue to navigate this unique school year. Joelle will offer insights and strategies related to coping with ambiguous loss, rebalancing routines, and self-compassion.
The Maple Run Unified School District will be holding another Dr. Joelle van Lent family presentation. This will be March 16, 2021 at 6:00pm. Please use this link to request an invitation.

Northwest Access TV has been supportive of our BFA Families by live streaming our Home JV & Varsity Basketball Games as well as our Varsity Hockey Games this winter because of the Vermont COVID ban on spectators at games. When they broadcast basketball, the stream will be the same for JV & Varsity so anyone watching will be able to keep watching the same video. SITE: https://www.facebook.com/nwatv
