Parenting class-part 2

We loved having a special visitor in our parenting class today! ❤️🤍🩶 Autumn Storer, a GHS alumna and nurse, stopped by with her youngest son to give our students some real-life, hands-on experience. It was such a valuable opportunity for students to practice their skills and see parenting concepts in action. Thank you, Autumn, for coming back to support the next generation—we appreciate you! ❤️🤍🩶 #GHS #HandsOnLearning #FullCircleMoment

The parenting skills class was able to work with our preschool class. Our high schoolers planned stations for the preschoolers to rotate through including a relay race, balloons, coloring, and kinetic sand. After all stations were completed, we finished with a high school vs preschooler race. Preschoolers won!!

Our parenting skills class was able to plan some activities and invite a couple of families in tow to engage in development skills for ages 3 and under.
