At a traditional school, gifted learners spend most of the day waiting to learn, often feeling punished by their intellect instead of empowered by it. As a parent, it can be disheartening to watch your child disengage when you know that in the right environment, they could thrive.
Boredom causes frustration in gifted children. Your child deserves an education as limitless as their potential.
Founded in 2018 by parents and educators of gifted children, we know how hard it can be to advocate for your child within the traditional system. Gifted learners require advanced academics and an accelerated curriculum, and their educational programming should match their abilities and interests. Out of a heart to see our students thrive, we created the only school for gifted learners in the state of Tennessee and the mid-south region.
On our most recent nationally normed assessment, taken in May of 2022, our students scored an average of 3 grade levels above their current level, and several earned grade equivalency scores of 13+ (post high school).
Our guides are trained in Responsive Classroom, a set of research-based practices designed to create a safe, joyful, and engaging classroom and school community for both students and teachers.
We would love to hear more about you and your child. Give us a call or send us an e-mail to get more information.
