Events
We plan quarterly events where parents and students can get together to learn and have fun. Details will be posted here.
Night of Fun and Learning
Our final Higley Supporters of the Gifted event for this school year is here!
Our annual Night of Fun and Learning will be combined with our Writing Contest Awards Ceremony on May 10th at 6:30 at HEMS. For our parent class, we are going to have a facilitated SENG (Supporting Emotional Needs of the Gifted) group meeting. This setting will allow for us to learn from each other in an organized and wonderful way.
We want all of you to have the opportunity to purchase a book that will help immensely in our discussion, plus our daily parenting and teaching of our gifted children. It is called A Parent’s Guide to Gifted Children by Webb, Gore, Amend, and DeVries. It is available from Amazon for $16.19 plus shipping and handling. Many bookstores should have it in stock as well. PLEASE consider purchasing this book, but if not, it will not change what you would come away with at our Night of Fun and Learning. Come anyway!
We will also have classes for the kids while the parents are attending their class. Please make sure to sign up for the classes.
