Please join us for an evening with Nick Thompson.  Nick will be discussing strategies and support for re-engaging gifted students after Covid.  He will also be sharing tips on student motivation, managing anxiety, and allowing kids to fail (how parents can manage their own anxiety, decide how/when to push, and when to allow kids to fail).
