"The role of a creative leader is not to have all the ideas; it's to create a culture where everyone can have ideas and feel that they're valued." - Sir Ken Robinson This is the type of environment I strive to establish for my students daily. My classroom's purpose is the Intellectual Development and Enrichment of Advanced Students (IDEAS). I teach second, third, and fourth grade gifted students from seven schools with the Pascagoula-Gautier School District. My students come from diverse backgrounds and sometimes lack the materials and opportunities that they require to foster their creative and academic pursuits. Please invest in the future by helping these young scholars.
