Teens are heading off to college only to find that they are unprepared for newfound responsibilities and independence. According to the article, many have not developed skills to manage daily life: filling prescriptions on time, getting homework done (without being nagged), or turning off phones long enough to focus on the task at hand.
So, how can parents ensure teens thrive when they start the first chapter of adulthood? Check out our ideas for helping Teens learn responsibility and independence

A small act can make a huge difference
No matter the connection, schools and the education they provide are important, and anything that can help stretch a school’s budget allows them to provide the best education possible.

Looking forward to the new school year we would like to make sure that "our story" on social media involves all types of extracurricular activities. To do this we will be forming a small team of students who will attend activities and make videos showing what happened at the activity. If chosen for the team you would sign up for 1-2 "home" events (including extra curriculars other than sports) per week.
Varsity Football and Basketball will be only available to Seniors.
A schedule will be made to make sure that every type of event has somewhat equal coverage.
The videos will be a compilation of the assigned event and last 1-2 minutes.
Videos will be submitted within 24 hours.
Students must be able to shoot the videos and edit the videos on their personal devices. Devices will not be supplied by the district.
In return, students will be paid $20 per event they attend. Students will also be given a Student Pass for all athletic events. If you are interested in applying, please fill out the application located here, which includes uploading a sample video.
