Description of Services
We are parents of 2E PG children as well as private teachers/learning facilitators and education consultants for parents moving outside of public and private education. Whether that is a matter of helping determine the best path, creating a learning/curriculum plan, creating curriculum, overseeing/supervising independent study, helping identify longer term goals and a path to get there--we are there to help parents educate their children in the best possible way for their child and their family. Secular, college-preparatory and placement by ability vs. age.
Description of Experience with the Gifted
In addition to parenting our own gifted and 2e children, our team has varied backgrounds. Our director, Heather, has raised one 2e PG child and managed gifted students (identified and unidentified) as a former public high school teacher and foster parent of middle school aged children. She has additional graduate credits in Special Education from a university that recognized the gifted as those needing accommodation to learn in a classroom setting. Former board member for Midwest Academy for Gifted Education (MAGE) from its start through 2022. Current board member of Prairie Paideia Learning Center.
