SUMMARY:ParentWiser: Understanding Eating Disorder
DESCRIPTION:Live Webinar and Q&A with Betsy Malm from Eating Recovery Center in Bellevue \nWhat do you know about eating disorders? Experts have indicated that eating disorders in teens have exploded since the pandemic. Myths and misconceptions abound about these complex medical and psychiatric illnesses. Not always originating from body dysmorphia\, they are linked with high achievement and are a form of coping mechanism for stress\, anxiety\, and a loss of control over one’s life. All genders\, racial and socio-economic backgrounds are impacted. Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any psychiatric illness but recovery chances increase with early detection. \nBetsy Malm from the Eating Recovery Center in Bellevue will help you understand causes\, how to recognize signs and symptoms\, and how parents and counselors can support students who may be struggling. Q&A will include students who can answer questions about their personal experience. This event is brought to us by the Issaquah High Healthy Student Program and PTSA. \nREGISTER to receive a Zoom link emailed 24 hours and 1 hr prior to the live webinar.

SUMMARY:Powerful Study Techniques That Make the Grade
DESCRIPTION:Guest Speaker: Gretchen Wegner \nResearch reveals: most students aren’t taught how to study\, and the strategies they devise by themselves don’t work. Also\, brain science points to some very clear\, easy-to-implement (and even motivating!) strategies that are proven to work\, if only students knew them. Ready to upgrade your\, or your students’\, study skills? Gretchen Wegner’s presentation condenses the complex neuroscience of learning into a simple 3-steps. Participants will learn the science behind effective study strategies\, and walk away with an easy checklist for what to do before each test to rock your learning… and your grades! **Middle and high school students are invited to attend with a caregiver. \nBrought to us by ParentWiser.
