Millburn To Join Neighboring School Districts For Parent Wellness Series

Substance abuse… mindfulness… social and emotional development.

These are the some of the things that every student needs to succeed, according to a consortium of superintendents from school districts across the state.

This month, school administrators and counselors from five districts – Millburn, Summit, Chatham, Berkeley Heights, and New Providence – will kick off a series of forums titled “Parent Wellness Series: What You Need To Know.”

As part of the collaborative effort, each district will host a free, public awareness forum at their respective high schools that will address topics such as “substance abuse, mindfulness, and social and emotional development,” according to a release.

The first program will launch on Tuesday, October 20 at 7pm at Summit High School, in conjunction with the New Jersey Elks Drug Awareness Committee.

Millburn school officials recently confirmed that the district’s presentation will be on Dec. 3.

More details about the Millburn presentation will be forthcoming, school officials stated in a release.
