The Ridgewood Public Schools will partner with the Ridgewood Public Library to present the next program in its Community Outreach Program series. The program, a panel discussion on “Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) and Gender Issues,” will take place from 7 to 9 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 13 in the Benjamin Franklin Middle School Auditorium.
The program is free and open to the adult public.
The panelists will discuss the social pressures and challenges that impact the behavior of boys and girls, and the distinction between problematic and “normal” teen behavior.
Panelists include professionals Jamie Ciofalo, owner/founder of Power Educational Consultants; Maggie DiPasquale, founder of Modern Mentor Program, Emme Endeavors; Kate MacHugh, expert on girl bullying, author and professional speaker; and Andrew Yeager, certified school psychologist and founding member/coordinator of the Bergen County Association of Student Assistance Professionals.
The Community Outreach Program was developed for parents and guardians by the district’s Office of Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment.
