If you’re kind, honest, and a hard worker... you’ll end up being a great human. The academic standards are important... but it’s also cool when educators can find ways to reinforce this other stuff.

Gifted individuals tend to be more sensitive to their surroundings - this is especially true for those that experience #overexcitabilities. Bad weather can really impact how we feel day to day. Are you enjoying the summer weather, or do you prefer cooler seasons?

[SENG @SENG_Gifted]

Failure often lies in the back of the mind of the gifted, especially in subjects and activities they don’t excel at.

Atlantis School of Skills. You want to see quality? Look no further. Leapfrogging academic 'inequality'? Special School in every sense of the word. Extra-special. These kids use their hands to excel! These kids rock. Committed teachers and leaders.

So, Mom calls me now at 15:00 saying ‘Happy birthday, I decided to call you now at the exact time when you were born forty years ago’.

Gimme that serviette. ❤️❤️❤️

“The full inclusion of people with disabilities is a fundamental aspect of democracy, and it must be a priority for U.S. foreign policy,” said Congresswoman Titus (NV-1), a co-sponsor of a new disability rights bill. https://t.co/W4qvGdPGCz

True North welcomes our latest addition to its senior leadership team. Mr Sigqibo Tabata joins our Team as acting Circuit Manager for Circuit 5. May his stay with us be one of immersion in selling hope to our children. Stoked to have him on board!

It is important that the #gifted community recognize and appreciate giftedness at every age. Our #gifted elders are vibrant, capable and full of wisdom. They need to be given every opportunity to shine.

A school culture that values and celebrates innovation begins with a leader who is willing to climb out on a limb.

You do not become awesome by staying safe all the time.

Yes I will give a student a second, third, forth.......chance! As many chances as it takes for a child to succeed! That’s my job, that’s what I signed up for - to be the difference, to go one more round! #relentless

A different view ... so simple, so necessary.

I remember as a teacher that I didn't always agree with what my administrators did or said.

I often thought to myself, 'What were they thinking?' In my mind, it always seemed simple & straight-forward.

Now, I realize there was often more to the story than I knew.

[Justin Tarte @justintarte]

Truth: The relationships among the adults within a school have a significant & far reaching impact on the quality & overall success of the #school.

Be the kind of team member you want to work alongside.

If there is one thing that must be decolonized it is this parade of feathers called the State of the Nation. Quite pathetic the display of wealth against a background of poverty and inequality

[Justin Tarte @justintarte]

As educators, the more we know about ‘who’ we teach, the more effective we will be with ‘what’ we teach.

[SENG @SENG_Gifted]

Giftedness does not diminish as we grow older! Gifted adults and elders may not be students anymore, but their giftedness still has profound effects on them and their lives.

[SENG @SENG_Gifted]

Having high sensitivity makes #gifted individuals especially susceptible to mental health issues, such as depression and anxiety. Sound familiar?
