Parents and guardians are always welcome and encouraged to attend classes with their child/children to make the most of this wonderful experience. Alternately, join other grown-ups for Gifted Community Enrichment (GCE). Each Saturday through our GCE sessions, The Super Saturday Program offers knowledgeable presenters, Q&A, and facilitated discussion to provide you with insights into life with gifted children, resources, and contacts.
- Anyone with an interest in gifted education is welcome to come attend GCE, including parents, guardians, teachers, counselors…
- There is no cost and no registration required to attend.
- GCE is provided as a service to the community.
- Sessions will begin at 9:45 a.m. and 12:45 p.m., 15 minutes after students begin morning and afternoon classes.
TSSP is a rare haven for parents and guardians of gifted children where we can talk with one another to compare notes about joys and challenges, make connections, learn what other schools are doing regarding gifted services, and simply relate in ways that others cannot. Through GCE, we actively foster this supportive communication.
For parents and guardians with a student attending class, we require attendance for the first 15 minutes of the morning or afternoon session the first week. We need this time to communicate key information about the term.
For questions on GCE, please contact messagecenter@supersaturday.org.
We look forward to collaborating with you to help our community face the challenges of educating our children.

Fall Term
Week 1, January 17th
1) Welcome & Orientation
After signing children into their classrooms, we ask everyone to stay for the first 15 minutes as we cover the most up-to-date policies including safety and security measures. Following that, speakers for the term will be announced. The remainder of the time will be opened up for Q&A. Because there is a wealth of knowledge among us, we encourage both new and returning parents and guardians to stay for the duration. Our program is enriched with the diversity of every person attending.

Week 6, February 21st
TBD
We are starting a new tradition and encouraging everyone to wear team or school spirit wear on the sixth Saturday of term. Students are encouraged to don spirit wear for their Super Saturday team, another team they are a member of, a team they cheer for, or for the school they attend. Grown ups are encouraged to represent, as well. We hope this fosters getting to know each other better and appreciation for the broad Cincinnati area we have the opportunity to interact with through TSSP.
The last session of every term, The Program facilitates a book (*and puzzle, and board game…) exchange. Is your home overflowing with books? Do you have a voracious reader that you can’t keep up with? Bring those children’s books you would like to pass along and pick up new-to-your-child books, whether or not you brought any.
A table will be set up near the doors to the cafe.
Note: On the last day of the term, some classes invite parents and guardians to view students’ work or a presentation.
