The “language” of relationship includes verbal courtesy, accepting body language, respect for space and listening skills. Today’s children tend to hide behind technology and often fail to develop those all-important interpersonal skills.

The Parent Program Committee of Portledge School presents an interactive workshop entitled “Raising Socially Successful Children,” on Wednesday, February 15th at 8:45 a.m. (355 Duck Pond Road, Locust Valley in Bahnik Hall). THe guest speaker will be Dr. Carolyn Rassiger, who will share tools and strategies with parents to help them teach and model social skills, preparing children for success in the real world. 

Dr. Rassiger has worked as a social worker in the Glen Cove School District since 1989. Her responsibilities include instructing teachers, student and parents; developing school-wide programs and curriculum; providing direct services to children and families; and providing leadership, supervision and training on various school and district-wide programs.

Please join us for an informative and engaging presentation. Bring your questions, too.
