RaiseMe: Upcoming and Past Webinars for Teachers, Students & Families

I hope you and your students continue to be safe. I speak for all of us here at RaiseMe when I say we have been so inspired by the outpourings of support you have shown your colleagues and students ― they are lucky to have you!

We have been busy using the great feedback from educators like you to continue developing our COVID-19 resources, and we wanted to share some updated offerings. We have added some awesome new webinars with timely topics around learnings and best practices, managing a remote team, and student mental health. And since this month is still Financial Literacy Month, we have also created new resources to help students, educators, and families make the most informed financial decisions they can ― and direct them where to find some support.

Check out one of our upcoming webinars! Or view previous webinars on replay.

Educator Panel: District & High School Learnings from the Frontline
April 30th, 10:00am PT/ 1:00pm ET
Join RaiseMe for this special panel discussion where we will explore what some of our partner schools and districts have been doing to help students navigate through COVID-19. We will share the difficult but amazing work our partners have been doing to show up for students, families, and colleagues.

Managing a Team and Maintaining Professional Relationships in a Remote World
Monday, May 4th, 10:00a PT/1:00p ET
As many Higher Ed professionals know, managing teams and maintaining relationships with your colleagues is an important part creating a strong culture and setting everyone up for success. We’ve gathered some of RaiseMe’s remote work experts to share tips for managing remote teams and building and maintaining productive professional relationships.

Student Mental Health during COVID-19: What’s Going On and How You Can Help
Thursday, May 7th, 10:00a PT/ 1:00p ET
Student mental health is top of mind right now for high school and community college educators. Join us for a candid panel discussion, guided by your questions, which will feature high school educators, community college educators, and mental health experts.

In our newest FinLit resources we:

• Breakdown the CARES Act to help families understand where they can seek out financial support during COVID-19.
• Guide students through understanding their financial aid award letters and help support students who still need to complete a FAFSA.
• Provide a guide to help support students seeking more financial aid because we know sometimes the first offer letter does not meet their needs.
• Offer educators a RaiseMe Text Message Guide to use with SMS applications like Remind, or any system you use for text messaging students. Just copy and paste!

As always, please let me know if there are resources you think we could create that might be especially helpful for you and your students during this time.

With gratitude ― and stay safe
