Bates Parent Shares & Electronic ​Parent Ed

PARENT SHARES
Parent Shares are group discussions held quarterly for each of our classes. Our Bates advisor, a guest, or a Co-op member facilitates each Parent Share. The purpose of Shares is to share information, support, and the understanding of those who have been there. Members earn one (1) Parent Education Credit each time they attend a Parent Share. Shares are most often held in the basement of the school during class time beginning 10 minutes after the start of class. Sessions last anywhere from 30 minutes to the full length of your child’s class time. Participants can come and go as available depending on the needs of their child in class. During the first 15 minutes, handouts and topic highlights are usually presented with group participation in the remaining time. A wide range of topics will be presented and time during each
Share is planned for discussion of additional issues. Occasionally an evening Parent Share will be scheduled to benefit the working parent. The school calendar will have the Shares scheduled but additions or time/date changes may occur and will be posted on the bulletin board or on class calendars. The Shares are not only a great place to get information and support for the challenging job of parenting, but it is the best way to meet the voices of experience - the wise, warm and wonderful members of the Co-op!

ELECTRONIC PARENT ED
​Every  month, our Bates Rep will send out a short article or video related to parenting with brief questions. Return the questions to the Bates Rep to earn 1 Parent Ed credit.
