YOUTH
AND
FAMILIES
We pray that you and your families stay safe and healthy. With the extended school closures, we would like to provide a few tools which may be helpful. We want our children and youth to have access to quality resources during this time to ensure that they continue to thrive academically, behaviorally, and socially-emotionally regardless of their learning format.
By clicking here, this list will guide you to digital educational enrichment learning resources. It is our hope that these resources provide support in the development of diverse learning experiences during this period of school closure.
We are excited to share that the list also includes biblical sites that will provide you with bible-based lessons that encourages godly relations for all ages.
And for those of us with children who tend to worry or feel anxious, remember that age-appropriate, fact-based information helps them feel more in control and can stop their minds from filling in the gaps, which is always scarier than reality. We encourage you to take a look at the suggestions below when considering the best way to talk about COVID 19 with your children.
