The festival will feature two to three films pertaining to threats the oceans and ocean wildlife face today. Two guest speakers will discuss their personal and professional relationships with the seas.

MVLA foundation hosts parent education event

The Mountain View-Los Altos School Speaker Series has scheduled Deborah Gilboa, M.D., to discuss “Raising Kids Who Can Launch” 7-9 p.m. Jan. 24 in Los Altos High School’s Eagle Theater, 201 Almond Ave.

Gilboa, a board-certified family physician and mother of four, encourages parents to use the parenting instincts they have developed but are colored by stress, doubt and guilt.

Gilboa’s presentation will include information on how to parent teens and young adults through their adolescence, encourage children’s resilience in the face of adversity, balance active parenting with enhancing children’s independence and impart lessons.

Admission is free.

The Mountain View-Los Altos High School Foundation and the Los Altos-Mountain View PTA Council co-sponsor the event.
