  23. Leah – CARROLLTON-FARMERS BRANCH ISD (verified owner)

    I’ve taken a couple GT courses before, but this was by far the best. The idea of looking at the whole child instead of academic success is a crucial idea for the development of our gifted students.

  24. Mitzi – CARROLLTON-FARMERS BRANCH ISD (verified owner)

    Since I am a parent, this course is more like a common sense that at least parents need to do to raise a child.
