BHS PTSA General Meeting & Speaker: Recap

Summary: Thank You Greg Smith and BHS Families!

BHS PTSA General Meeting

Raising Successful Students in the Digital Age

At our first General PTSA meeting on Thursday, October 17 we welcomed Greg Smith from Northwest Educational Services, a longtime area educator and owner to discuss how to best raise our kids in this digital age.

Greg Smith

First he mentioned biology, reminding us that our children’s brains are still developing and how that affects their decision making. As new technology will continue to be a part of our everyday lives, the best solutions are to model good behavior, communicate with our kids and be vulnerable about how we’re feeling, and educate ourselves about resources to help manage technology.

Thank you to Greg for an insightful and engaging talk. Northwest Educational Services has been helping students and families since 1995. For more information visit Northwest Educational Services. Greg is married with two teenage daughters and understands the challenges of parenting from both a professional and personal perspective.
