An Evening with Author Jenny Anderson: The Disengaged Teen

Cascades Academy presents an evening with award-winning journalist and author Jenny Anderson as part of its Education Series exploring the growing challenge of teen disengagement. Anderson, co-author of The Disengaged Teen and a former New York Times reporter who helped pioneer coverage on the science of learning, will share research-backed insights into why teens disengage and how they can move from digital distraction to real-world connection, deeper learning, and meaningful relationships. Parents and educators will leave with practical strategies to help teens reconnect, thrive, and build lasting motivation.
