How to respond
You have a lot of power to help your son or daughter be successful and transition to college well. Sometimes students struggle to find friend, become involved, understand their new role, and find emotional balance. When you notice this happening, it can be difficult to know how to approach the topic with them. If you are noticing any of the previous signs of difficulty, please use this guide to let your son or daughter know. If you need to talk through it before you talk to your student, call the Student Support Assistant at 814 393 2031.
Faculty and Staff
When students are at school, they spend more time with Clarion's faculty and staff than their families. That's why it's important for faculty and staff members to identify the signs that students are not able to give 100%. At times, it is very difficulty to know what to say to a student to let them know that you see that they could use some support and want to help them. Consultations with the Student Support Assistant are to help relieve the stress of initiating the conversation by coming up with a game plan of what to say, and how to acknowledge, care, and find help for students of concern. If you notice a student who you are concerned about or would like to help them find a way to give 100% to their education, contact the Student Support Assistant, use this resource, or call (814) 393 2031.
