o Student must have a minimum 2.50 cumulative grade point average.
o Student must show evidence of active participation in school and community activities/service.

Good afternoon Silver Creek Families,
We invite you to attend the next virtual workshop on April 12, 2023. Once again, the event will be hosted by David Hymowitz of #SameHere and is part of the district’s mission to educate and support the whole child.
The topic will be How to Have a Discussion with Your Children About Substance Use. Traditional workshops educate adults on how to talk TO kids. Talking to kids is the same as talking AT them, which means they probably are not listening. This workshop demonstrates effective ways to engage your kids in a discussion about substance use by using active listening skills. Listening allows them to examine their feelings and beliefs about the potential role of substances in their lives and how to support them.
Links for the virtual workshops are accessible at www.silvercreekschools.org. Each workshop begins at 7:00 p.m. and runs approximately 45 minutes.
Contact the district social workers with any questions. Learn more at samehereglobal.org.
