Parent and Supporter Information session provides information for upcoming virtual term

King’s will be holding a Parent and Supporter Information session, hosted by Joe Henry, Dean of Students, on Thursday, January 21, 2021 at 7 p.m. This virtual session, held via Zoom, will serve as an update, specifically aimed at parents and supporters of King’s students. Registration is required.

“We believe that parents and supporters have always been key in helping their students along journey towards success. This session will provide information, tips and strategies to help support students over this academic term,” says Henry.  

Dr. Dave Malloy, King’s Principal, and Dr. Gillian Balfour, Vice-Principal and Academic Dean, will both make a special guest appearance.

This session will provide information to help support students over this academic term. Topics will include:

• a review of services and resources available and how to access them (such as mental health, academic resources, etc.)
• tips to support access to virtual learning from home
• information on campus operations
• frequently asked questions

These provide tips and resources will help assist students who will be studying in the largely virtual setting that King’s will be operating under during the winter semester.

Henry will be unable to answer questions about specific students during the Parent and Supporter Information Session but does encourage students, parents, and supporters to reach out to him via email. Henry also holds an open session for questions each month on campus called Ask Dean Joe and will be continuing those remotely. There is also a Facebook group specifically for Parents and Supporters, so parents and supporters are encouraged to reach out and connect.
