The 4th annual ICSD Gifted Parent Education Night was scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Oct. 16 in the district office board room located at 2077 W. Royal Hunte Drive. According to a notice from Iron County Schools, the event was designed to provide information and connection for parents.
The event was intended to help families better understand the unique academic and social-emotional needs of advanced learners. Participants were encouraged to explore ways to foster critical thinking, curiosity, and independence through everyday learning opportunities and meaningful conversations.
Parents were provided with practical strategies to support a child's growth at home, including ways to use the Depth & Complexity Framework to encourage creative and critical thinking. The initiative aimed to strengthen the partnership between home and school.
Iron County Schools noted that the information provided would benefit most parents, even if a child has not been formally identified as gifted.
