    Growing up in the Foreign Service presents both opportunities and challenges. How can a student play to the strengths of their international experience and what are some of the unique factors that might affect the process differently? And with the end of Affirmative Action, the introduction of AI, and test optional movement, how will this impact college admissions? Come and find out in this presentation on just what makes the college application experience unique for Foreign Service students! 

    Bonus content: After the presentation, we will continue the presentation for those interested on a few key factors to keep in mind if applying to university in the UK or Europe. 

    About the Presenter: Becky Grappo

    Rebecca (Becky) Grappo has guided scores of expat and Foreign Service students on the path to college by helping them to think through such important elements as high school preparation, selectivity, fit, possible majors, and affordability. She has worked in international schools, written about the topic of college applications for the Third Culture Kid, visited several hundred colleges throughout the United States and is often called on by guidance counselors in international schools for assistance. Becky developed and taught the UC Irvine extension course for consultants on “American College Counseling for the International Student”, and completed her certificate in college counseling from UCLA. She is an active participant in the International Association of College Admissions Counselors (IACAC) and until recently, served on the Board of Directors of The Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA). She keeps current in developments in the college admissions world, especially as they pertain to kids overseas. She has also traveled extensively throughout the UK and Europe to visit universities with degree-granting programs in English. Many families in the Foreign Service know Becky as a 27-year veteran of Foreign Service life, having raised her own three children in the FS as well as having worked on education issues in the State Department.

    Helping Children Navigate Grief and Loss in the Foreign Service

    Description: Foreign Service life is full of goodbyes and we don't always feel we have time to really grieve and process the losses. In this talk, psychologist, Dr. Sabera Sobhan-Mosely, will offer ideas and insights to help you in navigating the losses your child may be experiencing - from saying goodbye to friends when moving to dealing with the death of a loved one. We'll provide information on understanding grief and loss from a developmental perspective and share ideas that can support you and your child during navigating the inevitable. 

    Learning Objectives: 

    • Learn how a child's developmental stage impacts their understanding of grief and loss. 
    • Learn how you can help your child process loss and normalize the feelings that come with saying goodbye.
    • Learn when your child may need additional help and signs to look out for when your child may be struggling to move through grief.

    Raising third culture children and teens in today’s world can be amazing...and hard…and sometimes amazingly hard.  Parenting a young person who thinks they may be- or is sure that they are- a member of the LGBTQ+ community adds a layer to any globally mobile family’s journey. 

    This webinar is designed for parents and allies to learn more about gender identity and sexual orientation. We will explore distinct stressors and needs that LGBTQ+ third culture kids face, and ways to best protect and support them.  Participants will leave with accurate information, helpful scripts to use when talking to your kids and teens, concrete resources and a wonderful sense of support for their whole family.

    • Common myths about sexual orientation and gender identity will be debunked and participants will be given accurate information about the development of gender identity and sexual orientation.
    • Participants will understand distinct stressors that LGBTQ+ youth face, and the best ways that parents can support young people on this path.
    • Participants will have a clear understanding of protective action parents can take.
    • Participants will leave with concrete scripts that are helpful in conversation with kids, teens and extended family members.
    • Participants will identify concrete resources and reasons to celebrate community on this journey.

This class is ideal for all current sophomores and juniors. Seniors who have not taken the SAT or plan to retake the exam are also encouraged to join. 

    Structure of Class

    This virtual SAT prep course will consist of 16 90-minute weekly sessions on Saturdays from June 22 through October 26, preparing students for two official test attempts. To make this class accessible for as many time zones as possible, Top Score will offer two weekly sessions from 9:00-10:30 AM EST and 7:30-9:00 PM EST on Saturdays. 

    Classes will be capped at 16,  early registration is recommended, and registration closes seven days before the start of the first class. 

    Students will join a specific cohort (morning or evening) but can switch cohorts as needed. So, for example, a student PCSing from DC to Asia over the summer could participate in the morning cohort while in DC and join the 7:30-9:00 PM EST option (Sunday morning in Asia) after their move. 

    This course costs $1,000 for FSYF members and $1,200 for non-FSYF members. However, this course is only open to individuals eligible for membership in the FSYF. All materials, resources, and communication with Top Score are included in this cost.

    • Build community among FSYF students around the world. This group class is intentionally open exclusively to FSYF students. An explicit goal of this course is to foster connections between FSYF students worldwide. 

    Each family is responsible for registering their students for the official SAT test attempts on August 24 and November 2. 

    FSYF and Top Score Education are unable to do this for students. More information about how to register for the SAT is here: https://satsuite.collegeboard.org/sat/dates-deadlines.

    Registration for the August SAT typically opens around early to mid-June. Registration for the November SAT typically opens around early to mid-September.

    Description:

    Let’s take a look at some of the FSYF Art Contest renderings and discuss what comes up for you in looking at them. Can you see yourself or your global journey in the art piece? In this meeting, we’ll also create an art piece that reflects some of your own identity and global homes, so bring some paper and colored pencils/markers!

    Learning Objectives:

    • Forge meaningful connections with fellow Third Culture Kids (TCKs) from around the world, fostering a sense of community and belonging within the Foreign Service youth community.
    • Engage in open dialogue to explore the diverse experiences, both enriching and challenging, associated with the TCK lifestyle, fostering empathy, understanding, and support.
    • Cultivate self-awareness and introspection by reflecting on personal TCK journeys and identifying key themes, emotions, and memories that shape our identities.
    • Embrace the therapeutic power of artistic expression as a tool for self-discovery and storytelling, creating an art piece that serves as a visual representation of our unique TCK narratives.
    • Foster a sense of pride and empowerment in our TCK identities, celebrating the richness and complexity of our multicultural backgrounds while navigating the intricacies of global transitions.

    Description:
    Being different is rough – and being bullied for being different is still far too common. Thankfully, there are things we can do to protect ourselves and others, disarm potentially painful interactions, and build a more empathetic community – employing cross-cultural skills. By learning to identify the reasons for bullying, what to do when you’re being bullied or see it happening, and how to increase and spread empathy – we can move towards a more fulfilling existence for everyone, and make the most of the power of being different.
     

    Learning Objectives:

    • Identify common causes and types of bullying and understand their sociological triggers.
    • Learn about declining empathy levels, causes for the decline, and strategies to cultivate empathy in ourselves and others.
    • Understand the cross-cultural dynamics that can lead to incidents of bullying and how to best mitigate these causes.
    • Explore narratives and frameworks to understand and address the issue of bullying in a wider context.
    About the Presenter:

    What to Know About ADHD, Autism, and Educational Assessments 

    Description: It can be challenging to know when or if you should have your child evaluated for ADHD, Autism or educational concerns. Frequent school changes, normal developmental ups and downs, and concerns about Medical Clearance status can leave parents feeling confused, overwhelmed, and uncertain of the best options for their child. In this talk, neuropsychologist, Dr. Megan Cheatham, PsyD. will share insights on what to keep in mind when considering testing, what testing looks like (in person and virtually), and what she's learned from her work providing assessments for Foreign Service families. 


    Learning Objectives: 

    • Learn the basics of assessments - what they are, how long it takes, what to look for when researching.
    • Learn how an assessment can help your child, and what it does not necessarily offer.
    • Learn how to talk to your child about the assessment process.
