Don’t Miss the Next Library Talk
On October 21 at 6 pm, Mrs. Thoburn will present Creating Scholars in the Age of AI: What Every Future-Focused Parent Should Know. She will cover what children still need to learn for themselves, where AI helps and where it gets in the way, and the practical decisions parents can make at home and in choosing a school. Parents and teachers are welcome, and we'll leave time for questions.
This event is open to prospective families. If you know a family wondering how to prepare their children for this new world, this evening is for them, too.
