SPAN (Synergy/SAGE Parent
Action Network) is the Prior Lake/Savage chapter of Minnesota Council for the
Gifted and Talented (www.mcgt.net ). Our first meeting will be
on Monday October 7th at 7pm in the WestWood Media Center
and will focus on our plans for the year as well as welcome speaker Erin Boltik
(Director of Gifted Programs and Services in the Bloomington School district)
to talk about Gifted 101…What every parent of a gifted child should know.
In particular, Erin’s presentation is designed to help parents understand the
needs of schools, affirm their position as an essential advocate for their
child, and support everyone’s efforts to do what is best for a
child/student. Please email Apryl at span.priorlake@gmail.com with questions
and/or to be included on the SPAN email list, and see our website at www.mcgt.net/priorlake to see our complete
