Science & Arts Academy (SAA) is a unique independent school located in Des Plaines that specializes in gifted education. On Thursday, May 9 at 9 a.m., the school will be hosting an in-person event for prospective parents to experience the school firsthand.
During the event, parents will have the opportunity to hear from the Director of Enrollment, Mindy Hildebrandt, and Dr. Ama Thompson, the Director of Assessment, Curriculum, and Instruction. They will provide valuable insights into how gifted children are supported at SAA and how the school’s unique approach to gifted education sets it apart from other schools.
Attendees will also get a chance to take a tour of the facilities and see differentiation in action. They will interact with current parents and students and learn more about the school’s curriculum and instruction methods.
Hildebrandt encourages parents to attend this event to witness teaching and learning in action and meet current students and parents who are already part of the school community. She believes that it’s a great opportunity for prospective families to see if SAA is the right fit for their bright child.
Families interested in exploring how gifted children thrive at Science & Arts Academy can register for the event on the school’s website at scienceandartsacademy.org/events. Don’t miss this chance to learn more about the school and see if it’s the right fit for your child’s unique needs.
