As the parent of a gifted child, if you’ve heard it once, you’ve heard it a million times: “Advocate for your kids.” You understand that what they are being taught in school is not always challenging them and that they need more in order to develop as students and to continue to be motivated in school. But when it comes to having that discussion with your child’s teacher, what do you say? What should you ask for? How much is too much, or too little? How do you avoid sounding conceited or entitled? Come join us for a discussion of different ways that gifted children can be challenged in school and how to ask for the accommodations that your child needs.

Come join the discussion. Register today!  Registration is free for CGCC members, a non-refundable $5 for non-members.  Won't you consider joining CGCC today?  Join
