    PARENT HANDBOOKB DEAR AGGIE PARENT Letter From The President WELCOME TO UTAH STATE UNIVERSITY, HOME OF THE AGGIES We hope the next few years are full of learning and growth for your student, and that you feel welcomed as a member of the Aggie family. As the parent of an Aggie, I have seen firsthand the personal growth that occurs as students participate in the learning, discovery, and engagement available at this world-class university. Students regularly cite parents among the greatest influences in their lives. We recognize you are a tremendous partner in helping your student reach his or her goals.

Whether you are a returning parent, a first-time parent, or alumni, this handbook will provide you with resources and information to help support your student's transition to college.

  • Summer Activity Guide 2017 Cache & Box Elder Counties
    Summer Activity Guide 2017 Cache & Box Elder Counties www.careaboutchildcare.utah.gov Summer Activity Guide 2O17 Cache & Box Elder Counties Summer Activity Guide 2O17 Cache & Box Elder Counties 6510 Old Main Hill, Logan, UT 84322-6510 435-797-1552 or 800-670-1552 www.careaboutchildcare.usu.edu A program of Department of Workforce Services – Office of Work & Family Life, Office of Child Care & Utah State University – College of Education & Human Services, Department of Family Consumer and Human Development. Utah State University is an affirmative action/equal opportunity employer. Why Are Summer Activities Important? Seventy -six percent of all Utah school age children 5-12 years old have parents in the work force, creating the potential for many children to be left unattended. Many children are not prepared to be left home alone. Children in self-care are more likely to engage in risky behaviors, be truant from school, experience stress, have poor grades and abuse substances. They are susceptible to feelings of loneliness, fear and boredom. Summer activities are a wonderful way to offer fun, constructive activities to occupy your children’s time. Summer activities can give your children learning opportunities that not only help to ease their boredom, but can also help them become well-rounded, socially capable adults. We, at Care About Childcare - USU, have gathered this list of possible summer activities that may be of interest to you and your children. We hope that you will take the time to talk to your children and help them choose the activities that are best suited to their interests and your needs.
