Suggestions

With your support, I hope to prepare a plan that represents the concerns and interests of Mesa Public Schools' teachers, parents, and students. 

When talking with district administrators, I will present a plan to do the following: 

1. Evaluate the current program to see where improvements need to be made
2. Form a “vision committee”—comprised of outside experts, MPS administrators, teachers, and parents—to discuss the suggestions for improvement and create a plan to implement them
3. Increase teacher training and understanding of the gifted in their classes 
4. Increase the amount of time gifted kids receive appropriate curriculum every day, with gifted programs in place at every school
5. Provide individual gifted kids with the support and acceptance they need to reach their highest potential 

Here's your chance to put in your own two cents.

What have your experiences with MPS taught you? What would you do differently? What do you love about the program and hope will never be changed? Think about it. Ask your kids. Ask your friends. Ask your kids' friends. Ask your friends' kids.

Feel free to leave any suggestions you have that could improve the quality of gifted education in MPS in the comment section below, or you can reach me at the email address listed on the Contact page.
