B-PEN Resources for Back to School Transitions 2022

For kids as well as parents, the transition of “back to school” is one of life’s most anticipated – whether with anxiety, eager excitement, or a little of both. And most of us are still feeling a lot of uncertainty – from the day-to-day challenges of new schools/classrooms/teachers/peers to the bigger issues of today’s complicated world. Families will do well to take a deep collective breath before diving in, and as we go, keep social/emotional health front and center. B-PEN’s “Transitions” page offers a wide variety of tip sheets and resources to help families get off to a good start.

B-PEN is the Brookline Parent Education Network, which helps parents navigate the social, emotional and developmental challenges affecting Brookline's teens and pre-teens.
