The Independent Schools Association of the Central States, of which Maumee Valley is a member, is presenting a year-long series of webinars designed to strengthen partnerships with parents and caregivers.
The 2024-2025 Parent Series began Sept. 25 with a webinar titled “Back-To-School Momentum: Prepping Children of All Ages for the Challenges (& Successes) of a New School Year.” The presenter is Lynn Lyons, LICSW, an internationally recognized psychotherapist, author, and speaker with a special interest in interrupting the generational patterns of anxiety in families.
Upcoming dates and topics are:
- Feb. 12: Squish the Peas: Life Lessons from Toddlers on How to Live a Happier, Healthier Life (presented by Hasan Merali) (register now)
- March 11: Raise Your Children & Adolescents to be Authentically Successful, Emotionally Healthy & Prepared to Thrive (presented by Ken Ginsburg)
- April 9: Planning for Summers of Growth & Joy (presented by Michael Thompson)

- Jan. 15: How to Raise Socially Skilled Tweens & Teens Who Can Navigate Friendship Challenges (presented by Phyllis L. Fagell)
You can read bios of each speaker and more about each topic through the program guide.
Prior to each webinar, ISACS will send Maumee Valley a Zoom pre-registration link, which we’ll share with the MV community. All parents, caregivers, or other community members (faculty and staff, for example) who plan to attend the live presentation must complete the Zoom pre-registration before the event begins.
Webinars will be recorded and available to registered schools until June 30, 2025, unless otherwise noted.
