The Parish School would like to thank everyone who supported last week’s 16th Annual “Giving Voice to Children” Luncheon. This event wouldn’t have come to fruition without our donors, underwriters, attendees, volunteers, luncheon chairs Ellen and Bobby Conner and with Zooey and David Stringer, emcee Casey Curry, our keynote speaker Carol Westby, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-CL and many more. We capped off the event by honoring Legacy Asset Management – a OneDigitial Company as our Community Partner of the Year, Mike Assel, PhD as our Robbin Parish award honoree and Parish board member Melanie N. Seigle, MA, CCC-SLP, LSCW, as our Golden Oak award honoree. Thank you for your continued impact on Parish and our community! We were able to raise more than $50,000 for our financial assistance program, which will give children access to life-changing education found at The Parish School.

Hispanic Heritage Month is off to a smashing success! 🪅 In celebration of #HispanicHeritageMonth, the Rangers and Dinosaurs read the book "Hooray! A Piñata." It was fitting that afterwards, the classes took turns trying to open a piñata and found some goodies inside! #TheParishSchool #ParishSchoolTX
Welcome feelings ⭐️ During feeling helper time, the Otters recently welcomed a new feeling buddy – Angry! Led by Social-Emotional Support Specialist Jayda Washington, LPC, the class learned what anger looks like in others, themselves and discussed times when they feel angry. They welcomed angry feelings, because it’s OK to feel angry, and learned the coping strategy S.T.A.R. – Stop, Take a deep breath And Relax. #TheParishSchool #ParishSchoolTX
