Well…I’m officially homeschooling and teaching English part-time next year! I just pressed send on the email to my kids’ public school and accepted the English position. It will be so good to have more time with my girls & not be worried about what they’re learning at school.

Improving your SAT score can happen with a library book.

Rich kids can get arts, athletics, summer programs, unpaid internships, essay writing, interview coaching, and private school grade inflation. You can buy all that.

This is why the SAT is still a tool of social mobility

Often G/T kids have wide interests. It might take a little work to help your child find extracurriculars they can flourish in. Networking with other parents or can help you to come up with ideas for these kids to explore.❤️🎉😍 -Jessica #GTAwarenessWeek #whyGT #whyGT
