Parent University
Have you ever felt like you could use extra guidance in the realm of navigating youth culture or parenting in a digital world?
Parent University is a group of seminars/classes hosted by experts in the fields of parenting and child development that address relevant issues and give you, as parents, tangible ways to help your children and strengthen your families. These classes serve as Foothill's desire to partner with families and become a parent resource for our school community. Classes will be held throughout the school year. We expect every family to attend at least one.
Topics will range from caring for the social/emotional health of children during a pandemic (by popular request), to preventing bullying & cyber bullying, to fostering spiritual growth in your home.

Parent Pledge
At Foothill Christian School, we believe childhood is sacred. It's a time for imagination, friendship, and faith to flourish. A positive childhood lays the foundation for a meaningful adulthood, and delaying technology in the home is one of the most powerful ways to protect it. Obviously, technology has value, but when introduced too early, it can pull children away from the growth, rest, and real connection God intends for them.
We’re not anti-technology... we’re pro-childhood. Research and real-life experience show that delaying smartphones and social media:
- Improves focus, sleep, and emotional health
- Encourages creativity and strengthens family bonds
- Reduces anxiety and depression
- Supports healthy, real-world friendships
we are introducing a Parent Pledge that we want every family to consider signing! It's a pledge that commits to raising our children with similar tech values, making it easier for every child to thrive without the pressure of phones and social media too soon.
As you consider Christmas gifts, remember that one of the most precious presents you can give is the gift of innocence. Choosing to wait on smartphones and social media helps guard your child’s heart and keeps their childhood unhurried.
