The best little guidebook for the teen you support. This is not a reactive how-to-survive guide; it's a proactive how-to-thrive guide. For teens in middle school through high school and those who support them, How to High School was written purposefully so that they could open up to any page at any moment and find answers to navigating their journey. Each chapter was intentionally designed with the attention spans of today's teens in mind. It is great for mentoring and group discussions. How to High School was inspired by one consistent question that author and teacher J.D. Durden, aka "Mrs. D.", asked senior classes over the years: "What do you wish you would have known before you graduated high school?" This question is the foundation of the life-shifting insights shared in this book. The twenty-two chapters of supportive insights include: - Comfort Zone Paralysis - Challenging but Doable - The Enough-Ness Monster - Life Lessons -vs- Intelligence - Red Flags Are Your Superpower ... and more. Over the past twenty years, so much has changed for our youth. For past generations to compare their teen experience to the teen experience of today, is like comparing gas prices from then to now. Social media, college requirements, lack of safety in schools, and more have drastically shaped our youth's experience. Still, the foundational topics within this book remain consistent and timeless no matter the changes in our world. Well-known for championing culture-shifting social-emotional initiatives across schools and counties, Mrs. D's primary focus has been creating environments where youth and adults feel safe, seen, and supported. This book is no different. Add the How "I" High School Journal companion book for teens to write their experiences and thoughts as they navigate high school.
