Welcome to my monthly blog, your exclusive insight into the heartbeat of our community and our commitment to educating gifted students. Through my lens as Head of School, I'm thrilled to share this journey with you.
On the first Monday of each month, join me as we explore the forefront of educational excellence, celebrate diversity, and offer a glimpse into the extraordinary world of Roeper. As we delve into these topics and others, expect to witness Roeper's leadership in gifted education and our students' potential as future change makers.
Just before the Thanksgiving break, I had the opportunity to attend the annual conference of the National Association for Gifted Children (NAGC) in Seattle, Washington.
In leading professional development workshops, I have often given groups of teachers and administrators a crayon or a chisel-point marker and asked them to draw a picture of someone or something across the table.
This past June, I met with fellow heads of schools from across the country at Stanford University. What this particular group of heads has in common is that we are all recipients of endowment funds from John Malone, which allows us to offer need-based scholarships to gifted students at our schools.
