“The Pressured Child”

NNHS PTSO brings Dr. Michael Thompson to speak on “The Pressured Child”. The push for students to excel at school and get into the best colleges has never been more intense. Through his experience as a clinical psychologist, school consultant and speaker on the topics of children, schools and parenting, Dr. Thompson, co-author of Raising Cain, addresses America’s performance-driven obsession with the accomplishments of its kids – and provides a deeply humane response.

Co-Sponsored by: Bigelow Middle School PTO, Day Middle School PTO, the Educational Excellence Fund of the Newton North High School PTSO, PTO Council, The Newton Partnership and the Newton Parent Advisory Council for Special Education.

October 23rd, 7:00 – 9:00 pm
