MBEF: MBEF Special Presentation

Press release from the Manhattan Beach Education Foundation:

September 15, 2021

Please join MBEF for a special presentation by acclaimed author, college admissions expert, and educational consultant, Cindy Clumeck Muchnick, M.A. Co-author of The Parent Compass.

In this highly competitive world where tutoring, micro-managing, and helicoptering seem to be the norm, parents often feel helpless trying to support their child in a productive way. Based on her research with co-author Jenn Curtis, Cindy will share her expertise on how to best support your tween/teen and navigate through this challenging time with renewed confidence.

Here is what this presentation will offer:

We encourage you to purchase the book The Parent Compass to serve as an in-depth reference tool. The Parent Compass is for sale at our local Pages bookstore and exclusive signed copies are available through the author for $20 (including shipping) using this Google Book Order Form.

Cindy has worked in the fields of college admissions, educational consulting, teaching, and counseling for the past 20+ years. She is a mother of four and has devoted her career to working with teens. Cindy’s thoughtful advice and anecdotes as both an expert and mother will resonate with any parent.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON COVID -19 PROTOCOLS

The safety of all guests is important to us. The Manhattan Beach Education Foundation will be following all LA County Covid-19 guidelines. Entry will require proof of vaccination (vaccine card, digital image or QR code) or proof of a negative COVID test (PCR or Antigen) within 72 hours of the event. The testing requirement includes people who cannot get a vaccine, such as children under 12.

In addition, we will be following all MBUSD Covid-19 protocols. This requires that all attendees wear masks indoors and outdoors at all times when on any District campus or facility except to remove them momentarily when eating or drinking, unless they are able to maintain six (6) feet physical distance from all others.

If you are purchasing tickets for someone in addition to yourself, it is your responsibility to make sure your additional guests understand the MBEF Covid policy. Being unaware of the policy does not change the requirements and no exceptions to the policy will be made.  

As the situation evolves, so will our approach to keeping you safe. Thank you for your patience and flexibility as we manage this and ask that you check www.MBEF.org for updates.

 Please note: All sales are final. Should COVID protocols require limited attendance or eliminate the possibility of an in-person event, each registrant will receive a private link to a Zoom Webinar available only to ticketed individuals.
