LMS Gifted Scholar Parent Education Series

Gifted Parents,

I am excited to announce that this year I will continue to host the Gifted Parent Education Series! This is a four-part series which will focus on various aspects of gifted education.The goal of these meetings is to provide on-going professional development for parents to collaboratively meet the cognitive and affective needs of gifted learners. These meeting will give the parents of LMS gifted scholars the opportunity to create a collaborative community to gain and exchange information and advocate for gifted education.

The sessions are scheduled in the months of October, November, February, and March and will be held in the Lynnhaven Middle Media Center from 6 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. The dates for the sessions are as follows:

Part 1- October 15 – My Child Is Gifted Identified, But What Does That Mean? Exploring Characteristics and Programming Options for Gifted Scholars

Part 2 – November 19 – I’m Not Weird, I’m Gifted: Understanding the Social Emotional Needs of Your Gifted Scholar

Part 3 – February 18 – What It Means To Be 2E: How to Navigate the World of Twice Exceptionality

Part 4 – March 17 – The VBCPS 2020-2025 Local Plan for the Education of the Gifted
