The City School District of 91�������� will hold a virtual training called “Anxiety and Depression in School-Aged Learners” on Tuesday from 6-7:30 p.m.

The session is open to family members, educators and others who want to learn more. It will be held as a Google Meet. You can join the event at the link above.

Many children and teens have fears and worries and may feel sad and hopeless from time to time. Some fears and worries are typical. But persistent or extreme forms of fear and sadness could be due to anxiety or depression.

Children and teens cannot learn well when they are anxious and depressed. In Tuesday’s session, participants will learn about how to recognize anxiety and depression and how each of these may affect learning. Participants also will learn ways to meet the educational and social needs of depressed and/or anxious youth at home and in school.

Gina Cosgrove, Psy.D., will lead the session.
