Parent Discussion Group: The Complexities of Parenting Highly Capable Children

The public is invited to NOVA School on October 28 at 7:00 p.m. for an interactive discussion addressing the complexities of parenting of highly capable children. Facilitated by Barbara Mitchell Hutton, NOVA’s Head of School and an internationally-recognized innovator and champion in the education of highly capable students, the Parent Discussion Group is designed to address challenges, joys and concerns inherent in the complexities of parenting of highly capable children. The exchange among parents is supportive and informative and adds to the richness of the discussion.

A prior participant said this about the benefit of the discussion group: “You don’t want to miss this opportunity to join our community in learning how to deepen and broaden your experience with your child and your self. Barbara Mitchell Hutton is a master, full of insight and wisdom from years of working on the leading edge of gifted education.”

The foundation book for this discussion group is Living with Intensity (Daniels and Piechowski, 2009.) Other resources will be provided as topics of interest develop.

A part of a series for the greater community that is free to attendees, the Parent Discussion Group will meet again on November 18th at 7 p.m. at the same location. Attendance at each group meeting is not required. Advance registration is helpful for planning but not required. To register or if you have questions email Barbara at bhutton@novaschool.org.
