Parent Resources
Strategies that can help you support your gifted student
Provide access to resources on topics of your child's interests & talents (see some local resources below!)
find a peer group for your child, other children with similar interests & abilities
Many gifted students are very empathetic - support your child if he/she indicates an interest in service projects or community involvement
Do not expect perfection! Remember your child is just that...a kid! Allow him/her to enjoy being a kid - be understanding & supportive when he/she is frustrated, encourage risk taking, and view mistakes as opportunities for growth.
Talk to your child's school about the available options for accerlation or enrichment - the school may offer special programming, teams, or other resources that would be perfect for your child's needs
