Our Teachers
Our teachers are experts in the field of Gifted and 2E education. We know that Gifted kids’ developmental asymmetry makes it hard for them to be in a classroom with peers who might be two years behind them in math and two years ahead socially. We work hard to develop networks of support with our partners in early intervention, mental health, and a variety of therapies. We are passionate about creating a safe place for children and their families to grow together. Our teachers are your partners on this parenting journey.
Philosophy
WE believe Gifted, neurodiverse and 2E kids learn best when they are recognized, supported and encouraged by passionate, creative educators. Our students are not just a brain in a body. They are whole persons worth of respect who deserve a joyful education filled with poetry, snail trails, hula hooping and asking ALL the questions. We believe in the power of play.
Location
We are located on the campus of St. Andrew Presbyterian Church, but are a secular program. We are near Erna Fergusson library; our nearest cross streets are San Mateo x Comanche.
