2011: Annual Report
The Parent Association for Gifted Education, Inc. (PAGE) concluded its 2010-2011 fiscal year on June 30, 2011. The program continued to excel in serving the Greater Cincinnati gifted community.

Highlights
2010-2011 was another strong year for the Super Saturday program. For the second year in a row (and the second time in the program’s history), we exceeded 1,200 registrations. The program offered 118 classes over the three sessions. We continued to emphasize our service to the families of the gifted as well, offering new speakers in the parent room and developing our online presence. Our volunteer staff continued to work diligently to keep the program running smoothly. Corrine Sandusky completed her first full year as President, and also filled in as acing Registrar. Corrine displayed remarkable dedication and leadership throughout the year. Teacher Coordinator Pauline Childs continued her excellent work in finding quality teachers to offer classes. Korin Mattei continued to serve as Campus Operations Manager, coordinating all on-campus activities, ensuring teachers had necessary A/V equipment, and troubleshooting problems. Kristen Bickel arranged an excellent lineup of speakers for parents to listen to during classes. Jenn Ledonne took over Logistics, helping to ensure that all of our volunteers remained on task and on schedule. Ying Lee continued her work as corporate Treasurer, as did Cathy Born as Secretary. Both helped to maintain tight operational control over the organization, a task made even more important during this period of growth. Diana McDonough took over for Tom Willis as webmaster. After nine years volunteering with the program, Jennifer Clark, the longest serving member of our board, completed her final term as Vice President of Communications. During her time on the board, Jennifer also served as President and Teacher Coordinator, and provided assistance throughout the program.
With this record-breaking enrollment came an unprecedented workload on our volunteers and board members, who worked diligently to ensure that everything ran smoothly.  Corrine Sandusky became President of PAGE in November 2009 and helped lead the program during this period of rapid growth.  Corrine’s dedication and hard work were key factors in our success this year.
Teacher Coordinators Pauline Childs and Liza Gallagher continued their excellent work in finding quality teachers to offer classes.  Korin Mattei continued to serve as Campus Operations Manager, coordinating all on-campus activities, ensuring teachers had necessary A/V equipment, and troubleshooting problems.  Kristen Bickel arranged an excellent lineup of speakers for parents to listen to during classes, and Jenn Ledonne managed the parent hospitality room and handled spirit wear orders.

In November of 2009, our Chairman and CEO, David Cantey, stepped down after over 18 years of service to PAGE.  Dave’s contributions to PAGE and to the gifted community are numerous, and we appreciate all he has done for us and wish him the best in his future endeavors.

Goals
As the program continues to grow and develop, we set goals each year as we strive to improve our service to the gifted community. For the upcoming year, we will be focusing on the following areas: Expand Social Opportunities - Organize and execute at least two new social events (hosted by PAGE) during the year

• Optimize Registration Process – expand admin registration database
• Best practices – continue best practices
• Code of Expectations – complete and implement COE for all stakeholders
• Customer Satisfaction – assess results of customer satisfaction surveys and develop plan of action

As we look forward to the new year, we anticipate continuing to provide intellectual and social opportunities for the gifted children in the Greater Cincinnati area.
