Michelle Icard: 8 Setbacks That Can Make a Child a Success

Date & Time: Wednesday, January 31, 2024
9:30am-11am
7pm-8:30pm

Location: The Community House
Registration Link: https://d181foundation.org/community-speaker-series


Every child messes up, sometimes in ways that seem sure to wreck their futures: a bad report card, poor sportsmanship, underaged drinking. These are tough moments for parent and child alike, often complicated by the fear that the misstep is also an indictment of our parenting. But what each of these “fails” has in common for our kids is the precious silver lining of a chance for character building and developing more grit- if we help them process their mistakes well.

Icard offers specific and invaluable advice about what to say, what not to say, and what to do to help children in eight categories of tense situations.

One World Night - Sign-up Today!

12/15/2023 4:33 pm

After last year’s great success, the One World Night is back at Prospect! Students and their families are invited to showcase a culture or country of heritage or special interest at our evening open house. Join us for a fun night at Prospect celebrating culture and our school’s diversity! This year’s theme is Sports around the world.
◦ When: Thursday February 8th, 6:00 – 7:30 pm
◦ Where: Prospect School
◦ Registration for showcase participants opens TODAY!  
◦ Please Sign-up here.

Here are some ideas to get you and your student brainstorming on how to showcase the culture or country of your choice:
• Informative display board
• Display of touchable objects such as souvenirs, coins, toys, textiles, books, art, etc.
• Teach a game or host a craft at your station
• Bring food in sample sizes
This event is powered by the participation of Prospect students and their families and we look forward to your involvement!

Due to the awesome turnout last year, we will make sure that families that sign up to showcase have a break during the event to enjoy the One World Night and visit the other tables.
