Classes for parents

Classes for parents of elementary school children are set for the fall.

The classes below are sponsored by The Center for Family Studies and Educational Advancement at Lynchburg College and supervised by Dr. Jeanne Booth.
An experienced school counselor will lead discussions with the help of a future school counselor in training.

Classes meet once each week for several weeks. You can register for classes by e-mail or by calling the school most available to you.

If your elementary school child does not attend one of the schools holding classes, contact the school counselor in the school nearest you. If space is available, you will be admitted.

All courses are free. Course books are sold at cost.

If the classes below do not fit your schedule, additional classes are available in the community. For more information, call Betty Blevins (Central Virginia Community Services) at 948-4831 or Mark Yudowitch (Campbell County Social Services) at 332-9752.  Also, contact the Alliance for Families and Children (845-5944) and local faith communities to inquire about upcoming possibilities.
