Are you nervous about your child’s transition to high school? Let us help support you and your teen through the process. Join JumpSpark, Atlanta’s Jewish teen initiative, and our community partners for an evening of information sharing, resource collection and connection with fellow parents of 7th to 9th grade students. Participants will leave with a toolkit of resources that will help guide them and their teens through the transition and help alleviate undue stress on their families.
