Dear Charlemagne Families,
Today, we celebrate Friendship Day, a reminder of the power of kindness, connection, and community—both near and far! As a global family, we encourage our children to embrace diversity, build meaningful friendships, and spread kindness across cultures. Let’s take a moment to appreciate the friendships that enrich our lives and teach our children the value of inclusivity and understanding.
Wishing you a day filled with warmth and connection!
Bon weekend,
Poppy

Let’s face it, being a parent is a hard job!
At times, our emotions get in the way of our ability to access our own parenting brilliance. Wouldn’t it be nice to respond to conflict with rational thinking and problem solving? Are you ready to parent differently than you were parented? Join us as we learn to regulate our emotions and stop reacting out of impulse or tradition, so we can help our kids regulate their emotions and reactions.
Come learn, connect, and explore parenting with Conscious Discipline
We will be leading a series of workshops based on the School to Heart to Home parenting education curriculum from Conscious Discipline.
This is an approach to parenting built around the science of crafting caring and respectful relationships. An authentic, loving connection between parents/guardians and their children is the root of a healthy, thriving relationship built on trust and understanding. This is a great way to empower children to make positive choices.
