Parent University

Parent University

We are excited to announce the upcoming release of Parent University on Thursday September 16th on the Desert Heights website! Parent University is a series of videos created by Desert Heights educators with the goal of helping families develop the knowledge and skills to be proactive in their child's learning and development.

We had initially planned to host this event in-person but have pivoted to releasing this through several videos posted on our website so you have access to strategies that you can use at home with your child, anytime you need them. Each grade level has chosen a “hot topic” or skill that is extremely important to your child’s overall academic success. They have created videos demonstrating how to teach these skills so that you as parents can practice them at home the way we practice in class. All parents will have access to the videos from each grade level, therefore, if your child needs support in any of the other skills, you will be able to access those as well.

 

In addition to grade level videos, we will be adding content to support your child’s overall development and tips and tools for parents, we will provide an update as content is added.

Parent University is a Kindergarten-8th grade initiative, when students reach High School, they become the facilitators in sharing what they are learning with you at events called STEAM Nights.
