Description

Hear from Denise Pope of Stanford's Graduate School of Education and Challenge Success We invite you to join a talk with Denise Pope, Ph.D., of Stanford's Graduate School of Education and Challenge Success for a presentation and conversation about "the well-balanced student". In a high-stakes, high-pressure culture, parent and school expectations may have unintentional but damaging effects on students. Increasing demands on students may lead to unhealthy stress, resulting in burnout, disengagement, or debilitating physical and mental health symptoms. Denise Pope's workshop examines the tension that parents, students, and teachers often experience over issues such as homework, grades, and the culture of competition, and offers tools for creating a healthier school climate. The event will take place in person in Kemper Auditorium on Phillips Academy's campus. As well, it will be live-streamed and accessible by clicking here.
