Thriving in Middle School


One-day workshop for 7th and 8th graders.

Are you ready to begin talking with your middle school students about the more difficult challenges they are starting to face?

It is important for these young teens/preteens to hear clear and consistent messages about the importance of making healthy choices, talking with trusted adults when issues arise, and finding their inner leader.

Our Thriving in Middle School program can help you get the conversation started! Through a one-day workshop, on site at your school or community center, we can lead your students through experiential activites and discussion around how to:

  • Talk with your parents about subjects that matter
  • Make up your own mind
  • Deal with anger and frustration in simple and effective ways
  • Gain factual information about alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use
  • Learn about issues of diversity
  • Understand the value of seatbelt safety
  • Know how to use the Internet safely.
  • Thriving in Middle School is ideal for classrooms, youth groups, scout troops, clubs, and the like. Contact Marissa at mcarlson.ti@gmail.com to get started!
