[samscommunity] Re: Websites for Educational Assistance

Parents,
I have been following the parenting discussion on this listserv with great =
interest.  The SAMS website also has a Parent Page with links to useful =
sites for parenting skills and issues - http://www.richlandone.org/sams/par=
ent_page.htm=20

The Cyber Research Corner page has good links to sites which are good for =
students to use for homework help and research.
http://www.richlandone.org/sams/cyber_research_corner.htm=20


In addition, I would like to throw out this idea - What do you think of =
having "Parenting Workshop" groups before or after P.T.O. meetings, to get =
ideas on strategies for parenting pre-teens and young teenagers?
