Growing Gifted Parent Conference

We are excited to announce Growing Gifted, a new conference designed to support and empower families of gifted and advanced learners across our district. The conference will provide parents and caregivers with practical strategies, resources, and opportunities to connect with experts who understand the unique academic and social-emotional needs of gifted children.

We are pleased to welcome our keynote speaker, Dr. Emily King, a child psychologist, speaker, and parent educator with more than 20 years of experience working with neurodivergent children and teens, including gifted children and teens.

We will have on-site food trucks (Taco Green-Go!, King of Fire Pizza, Queen City Cheesesteaks, and Alsie's Ice Cream) available for lunch. Dr. King is also generously raffling off 3 copies of her brand-new new book, The Neurodivergent Learner: A New Approach to Your Child's Success in the Classroom and Beyond. Join us and you can also score some seriously awesome AIG swag! The best part is - it's all FREE!
