BETTER OUTCOMES FOR YOUR KIDS– Sept. 12 @ 7 p.m.
Every parent knows that as their kids grow older, parenting challenges change. Be prepared and understand what is happening–and what’s to come. This program, presented for District 96 parents, is well worth your time!

All interested parents are invited to hear guest speaker Dr. Michael Maniacci discuss Effective Discipline Without Punishment or Intimidation: Lead Your Kids to Better Outcomes
Plan to join D96 parents of kindergartners through 8th graders on Tues., Sept. 12, at 7 p.m., in the Twin Groves Middle School Learning Center. Dr. Maniacci’s long-time popularity with D96 parents has everything to do with his engaging presentations, expertise, practical strategies, and straightforward answers to parents’ questions. You’ll leave with info that will help you improve your parenting skills. (“I’d come to any program this guy presented!” a D96 dad noted on his evaluation sheet for a previous program by Dr. Maniacci.)

Tues., Sept. 12, 7:00–8:30 p.m., Twin Groves Middle School Learning Center, 2600 N. Buffalo Grove Rd., Buffalo Grove
All interested adults welcome. Free. No preregistration or RSVP required.
Arrive late or leave early as your schedule allows
