Partnering with Parents
At Providence, we are committed to providing parents with the resources and tools they need to support their child's intellectual growth, spiritual formation, and character development.
AN EVENING WITH KEITH MCCURDY
Saturday, October 14, 2023, from 5:00 to 8:30 p.m. in the Great Hall
How do you raise a “sturdy kid”—a child who can wrestle with the normal challenges of life? Join us as Keith McCurdy, LPC, discusses the benefit of allowing children to struggle as they learn to do hard things. Keith has been featured on the “BaseCamp Live” and “Crosspolitic” podcasts discussing topics related to parenting, with the goal of helping others understand how a Christian worldview, not psychology, should be the primary influence in family relationships today. Dinner will be served.
CREATING MOMENTS OF WORSHIP AT HOME
Tuesday, February 6, from 7:30 until 9:00 p.m. in the Great Hall
Join us as former Providence Head of Music, Barbara Leeman, and David Leeman, authors of student hymnal, “Hosanna, Loud Hosannas,” remind us of the powerful simplicity of singing to God. Current and alumni families and faculty will share tips on teaching children to praise God in the ordinary moments of life. No RSVP is necessary.
PARENTING IN THE DIGITAL AGE: HOW TO PROTECT YOUR CHILD
Tuesday, March 19, from 7:30 until 9:00 p.m. in the Great Hall
From social media to artificial intelligence, the digital world is challenging for our children to navigate. Join us as Providence parent Ashley Januszewski offers practical tips on the age-appropriateness, benefits, and pitfalls of various digital tools. Enjoy a practical discussion on keeping our children safe in the ever-changing online world. No RSVP is necessary.
