=Holmes School's GTD Wiki=

The 2017-2018 school year is my 24th year facilitating the Gifted, Talented, and Differentiation Program at Holmes. District 97 administration and GTD teachers have worked hard to make this program rigorous, flexible, and equitable. I'm excited about starting a new year and hope your child finds Holmes to be a place which accommodates diverse styles of learning, makes learning fun, and pushes all children to gain a year's worth of growth each school year.

At Kindergarten through 2nd grades, I will push in to classrooms and work with the classroom teachers to provide challenging experiences for students who are exceeding grade level goals. In the intermediate grades, all students who qualify for direct service in math or reading will work with me outside of the classroom. In 3rd grade math, there is also push-in supports.

If you have a question about your child or about the program, the best way to contact me is via email.
