Wednesday, May 7, 2014 6:00pm
RENO HIGH SCHOOL Theater
395 Booth St, Reno
Presented by: RICHARD CASH, Ed. D. Educational Consultant
Gifted students, when under challenged, do not acquire the learning and academic skills essential for success in school beyond high school. Some of our brightest students fail within their first two years of college because they don't know how to be a "little fish in a big pond." This session will guide parents through the understanding of self-regulation and give you tools to assist your child in developing the acumen to be prepared for more advanced courses with other advanced learners as well as success in the 21st century.
