Courses for HS Grads and College Students from SAS

The Scarsdale Adult School is offering four summer sessions to help recent high school graduates and college students make the transition to adulthood. Advocating for Yourself and Promoting Healthy Relationships is the first of a four part life skills series. Lauren Pomerantz, a youth outreach worker at Scarsdale High School will lead the seminar for the Scarsdale Adult School Thursday, July 8th.  

Skills will be learned through dialogue/conversations, role-playing situations, acting out skits, and problem solving together.  Students will develop the skills necessary to successfully promote what is in their best interest as they cope with life away from home. They will leave with a sense of how to get the best out of their college experience while learning to successfully navigate the college and post college environments.  Additionally, information and education about teen dating violence will also be discussed. 

The series of classes are held throughout Scarsdale for four Thursday evenings beginning July 8th from 7-9 pm.  Subjects include Advocating for Yourself and Promoting Healthy Relationships (July 8th at the Scarsdale Teen Center); Auto Maintenance & Safe Driving Techniques (July 15th Heathcote Gulf Service Station); Managing Your Money: Becoming Your Own CFO (July 22nd Scarsdale Teen Center); and Cooking 101 & Eating Healthy (July 29th Greenville Community Church).   

The cost for all four classes is $100 or $30 per individual class.
