Parental support: how to help your children discover their calling and path to a successful future

What if there are only 2-3 years left in school, but the child is still uncertain about their field of interest?
During high school, it's important for students to not only prepare for university but also discover what they are passionate about. So it's vital for students to engage in what genuinely excites them, obtain the first results, savour success and make up their minds about where to apply. That is — to owe the decision based on true interests, rather than grades or parents’ experience.
How can the school help students explore their interests and choose the right path for their future?
Join us on June 28 at 5 PM for a discussion led by Arturs Pilkevics, the Head of School at Exupery, and Rhonda Fisher, Director of Counseling. We’ll address all these pending issues and figure out the differences between local and international education. Arturs will share his opinion on how this can be solved as well as his relevant experience from international schools in Brazil, Indonesia and Latvia and discuss any issues attendees may be facing.
