  Hi Charlie,


  I am sure we could arrange something if there is enough interest, especially if an affiliate group would be willing to host.

    FREE PARENT SESSION OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
    From Proficiency to College Scholarships: Guiding Gifted Students through the Testing Maze
    Saturday, January 24, 2015     12:45-2:15 p.m.


    No matter how we feel about them, tests are a reality in students’ lives.  As students progress to high-school-level coursework (like Algebra I), new tests are required in Ohio.  Graduation from both public and private high schools requires more tests, but there is an alternative path that can be attractive to gifted students.  Meanwhile, the testing series of the SAT and ACT, so prominent in college admissions, are undergoing changes.  Still, though, one particular test holds the opportunity for huge scholarships for students nationwide, but students have to follow the process and know how to maximize that opportunity.  Join Gifted Intervention Specialist Anne Flick, who will share the latest news on the new Ohio state tests starting in 3rd grade, the testing requirements and alternatives for Ohio graduation, above-grade-level testing options for gifted students, and, finally, the format of the college admissions tests and all that hangs on them.  To ensure adequate seating for all attendees, please RSVP at https://www.facebook.com/events/312005485676387/?ref_newsfeed_story_type=regular .



    Sponsored by The Super Saturday Program, both sessions are free and open to the public, and all parents of gifted children are encouraged to attend.  Both sessions will be held in the Parent Hospitality Room on the first floor of the Science Building on University of Cincinnati’s small Victory Parkway campus, 2220 Victory Parkway, Cincinnati, Ohio 45206.  For parking, from Victory Parkway, turn onto Cypress St, and enter the parking lot on the right, which is to the rear of the campus, immediately behind the building.  No fee or parking permit is required.  Additional parking is available on neighboring streets.  Allow several extra minutes to park and to reach the session room.
