Seminars for Parents


Parent Seminars

The Center offers many seminars for parents prior to and during our programs for students. We believe education is strongest when parents, educators, and students work as a team. In keeping with this philosophy, we invite parents of students participating in our Super Saturdays program to attend seminars on gifted children and their educational needs.
