Together We Can Make a Difference
CRYSTAL Children & Teacher Supply
CRYSTAL Children &Teacher Supply can provide you with the tools to help your child excel in education. The gain in confidence and the belief to overcome challenges are extremely important in the growth and development of a child. Unfortunately today the focus is on passing and improving the standardized testing scores, rather than maximizing their potential in learning and real life skills.
Caring, certified teachers provide after-school tutoring at Crystal’s to strengthen learning skills. They believe that effective and challenging studying strategies bring out the most a child has to offer in standardized testing.
Crystal’s provides FREE hour-long workshops to parents needing G/T testing prep information including student nomination and upcoming testing dates, books and games that enhance higher level thinking skills, as well as possible test taking tips. Each month, they hold additional FREE workshops to help parents and teachers find the appropriate materials in a variety of subjects for home and classroom use. Call for workshop topics and more information.
