Maple Grove PTA board members personally highly recommend both of these workshops.
Both workshops presented by District Mental Health & Wellness

Smart But Scattered Workshop with nationally recognized Dr. Peg Dawson
Recording of 2/25 workshop will be posted HERE.

Executive skills are brain functions which help us to accomplish goals, overcome challenges, plan and organize activities, and work to complete a task. These skills are critical to learning and while some students acquire them naturally, others struggle to develop them. Dr. Peg Dawson will teach how these skills develop and strategies families can use to help children be successful.
