The Dysregulated Teen, It’s Not Just Hormones

The 21^st Century Teen will face many challenges, not just at school, but at home, in the community and at the workplace. In school, we are witnessing students on a continuum, those that are driven into a frenzy for grades, others who are disconnected and apathetic, a few that seem resistant to any suggestions, some who seem to robotically move through without a sense of curiosity and learning.

No matter their abilities, this class will approach education from a perspective that will engage, connect and resonate with their changing brains. Some of these students have learning challenges, specific diagnoses, others isolate, some get overwhelmed by trying to do it all. This class will delve into executive function, the brain, body connection and increasing the teen’s self-awareness on the road to adulthood.
