Jan. 29, 2019: PAC Parent Information Session
Tuesday, Jan. 29, 2019
6 p.m.
Hoech Middle School North Gym(3312 Ashby Road)
Traumatic stress can arise from a variety of sources. Having the tools to manage traumatic stress
empowers the members of the school community. We hope you can join us for this informative
session led by Dr. Denizela Dorsey from Hoech Middle School and Keaton Strong from Ritenour
High School about trauma-informed schools.
In a trauma-informed school, the adults in the school community are prepared to recognize and
respond to those who have been impacted by traumatic stress. In addition, students are provided
with clear expectations and communication strategies to guide them through stressful situations.
The goal is to not only provide tools to cope with extreme situations but to create an underlying
culture of respect and support.
Dinner will be provided.
