The Family Network Committee and its volunteers work closely with the JBS Counseling & Wellness Department to facilitate events for JBS parents on topics related to adolescence and parenting. Subcommittees include...
Parenting Together Programs: Grade-specific presentations/discussions are led by JBS principals and counselors, as well as outside professionals. Two parents per class organize two or more meetings per year.
Book Clubs: Parents work with faculty to plan six faculty-led book presentations/discussions per year and a year-long discussion of one book, led by a member of the Counselling & Wellness Department. Parents also work with the librarians to organize a meeting on summer readings.
Health Days for 10th-12th Graders: Parents work with the Counselling & Wellness Department to provide snacks and greet presenters.
Parent-to-Parent Events: Parents coordinate evening and educational programs for JBS parents.
