Welcome Cary Academy Parents!

Parent-Connect is broadcast live on Monday evenings from 8:00 pm to 9:00 pm EST.  Learn about the latest trends and research on key parenting issues from a panel of leading national experts.

Each session has a downloadable workbook in which you can jot notes as you watch the program. If you are leading a group discussion, our Facilitation Guide is a helpful tool to direct your conversation. These documents are located in the Downloadable Resources section for each topic. These files are in PDF format. Download Adobe Reader to view these documents.

To attend the live webinars, you will need to complete a free registration form for each session by clicking on the links below.  Once you register, GoToWebinar sends a confirmation e-mail immediately and a reminder e-mail on the day of the webinar. Both e-mails contain important instructions about how to join the live session. 

Your computer will automatically connect to GoToWebinar's integrated VoIP so you can hear the session.  Please make sure your speakers are not muted and the volume is set at a comfortable level.  If you do not have speakers, select "Telephone" from the Audio section of the dashboard.  Use your phone to dial the long-distance phone number provided in the e-mail and enter the access code followed by "#."  Next, enter your Audio PIN, located on the dashboard followed by "#."  This PIN is unique to each connection.  Please note, this call is not toll-free.
